SUMMARY:Designing large-scale bioreactors and bioprocesses for cultivated meat
DESCRIPTION:Designing large-scale bioreactors and bioprocesses for cultivated meatPast\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin Dr. Marianne Ellis\, Associate Professor at the University of Bath\, for a review of her GFI-funded research project focused on designing large-scale bioreactors and bioprocesses for the affordable production of cultivated meat. \n\n\n\n	Share this page on Facebook\n	\n	Share on Facebook\n\n\n	Share this page on Twitter\n	\n	Share on X\n\n\n	Share this page on LinkedIn\n	\n	Share on LinkedIn\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMarianne Ellis\, Ph.D.\n\n\n\nAssociate Professor\, University of Bath \n\n\n\n\n	\n\n\n\n\n\nWebinar description\n\n\n\nHow can bioreactors and bioprocesses be optimally designed for cultivated meat production?  Realizing the potential of cultivated meat and seafood requires adapting current technologies and innovating new bioprocess design. The scales needed to achieve significant levels of food production are far greater than for other tissue-engineered products. Plus\, unlike many biomedical applications of tissue engineering bioprocessing which produce high-value products\, cultivated meat needs to compete on cost with much more affordable products. Dr. Ellis will discuss her team’s approach to bioreactor and bioprocess design for the affordable large-scale production of cultivated meat. \n\n\n\nMeet the speaker\n\n\n\nDr. Ellis is an Associate Professor in Biochemical Engineering and the Head of the Chemical Engineering Department at the University of Bath. She holds a strong academic and commercialization track record with expertise in tissue engineering and bioprocess design. As a chartered engineer with expertise in tissue engineering bioreactor design and bioprocessing\, her work is applied to cell therapies\, in vitro models\, and cultivated meat production. For her cell therapy work\, she held a Leverhulme/Royal Academy of Engineering Senior Fellowship for the scale-up of regulatory T-cells. This technology is now being applied to other tissue engineering applications including cultivated meat. Dr. Ellis is a founding director and CTO for the successful startup Cellesce Ltd.\, and co-founder of Cellular Agriculture Ltd. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nUpcoming events\n\n\n\nView all events\n\n\n\n\n	\n															\n								\n		\n										\n						\n		\n			\n								\n							\n													November 12\, 2026\n																\n								Virtual Event\n																			\n				\n				\n					The Science of Alt Protein: Genome-scale modeling of porcine cell metabolism\n				\n				\n							\n				Explore how a GFI-funded genome-scale metabolic model can reveal porcine cell nutrient requirements and inform lower-cost culture media for cultivated…
