The Science of Alt Protein: Student research showcase, Part 2

Event description

Explore innovative student-led research shaping the future of alternative proteins. This special Science of Alt Protein seminar features finalists from GFI’s Academic Research Challenge presenting projects on crop byproducts, microbial strains, and stakeholder policies. Join us to discover emerging ideas from the next generation of alternative protein scientists.

Projects in this session include:

• University of Melbourne and Monash University, Australia: Alternative Proteins in Australian Agriculture—Stakeholder Perspectives on Barriers and Opportunities
• Ashoka University, India: The Stress Capacitance Index: A Non-GMO Screening Framework for Predicting Fermentation Shock Resilience
• National Institute of Food Technology, Entrepreneurship and Management, Kundli (NIFTEM-K), India: Novel Ultrasonic-Alkaline Pretreatment Pipeline for Economically Feasible Valorization of Sugarcane Bagasse as a Fermentation Feedstock for Mycoprotein Production
• National Institute of Food Technology, Entrepreneurship and Management, Kundli (NIFTEM-K), India: Engineering a Sequential Fungal Fermentation Strategy for Nutritional and Functional Upcycling of Soy Okara into a Next-Generation Smart Protein Ingredient through Integrated Protein Enhancement and PUFA Biofortification
