Conference of Food Engineering (CoFE) 2024
Event description
The purpose of the Society of Food Engineering (SoFE) is the advancement of food engineering. Claire Bomkamp, GFI’s Senior Lead Scientist, Cultivated Meat & Seafood will speak on The Good Food Institute’s efforts to create a road map that can provide direction to the scientists and innovators who will ultimately make the technical breakthroughs needed to push cultivated meat into the mainstream. She will discuss learnings and specific needs that allow GFI to make data-driven recommendations to others in the cultivated meat ecosystem and to offer research grant opportunities that are closely aligned with the needs of the industry.
