CARMA: Cellular Agriculture Manufacturing Hub
The EPSRC-funded Cellular Agriculture Manufacturing Hub 'CARMA' is working to transform food production.
What is Cellular Agriculture?
Cellular agriculture is a collection of technologies seeking to produce consumables that are traditionally produced in land-based agriculture systems, through other means such as precision fermentation or tissue engineering. While there is no firm definition - please see our blog for further discussion on the term.
Our Vision
Our vision is for a just transition to environmentally, economically, and socially sustainable food systems.
Our Mission
Our mission is the integration of transdisciplinary responsible approaches for novel cellular agriculture tools and technologies, into current food systems, to deliver sustainable food manufacturing in the UK and beyond.
The Cellular Agriculture Manufacturing Hub is funded by a grant from the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council reference EP/X038114/1
