The new technology originated from Katajisto’s laboratory, which is connected to the Centre of Excellence in Stem Cell Metabolism (MetaStem). Researchers there have studied how cellular metabolism regulates the division and differentiation of stem cells. Their basic research on the metabolism of muscle stem cells led to an innovation that can keep the cells expanding longer than with current methods. This enables the precise control of cells in meat-producing bioreactors.

Leading Innovation ++ on the Field ++ with a Purpose => I used AI in cultivated meat industry to optimize bioreactor design and to dramatically improve the efficiency and quality of production. I developed high quality 3D imagery process in a biotechnological startup to disrupt the drug discovery methods.
