Synthetic Biology, Biohacking and Cheese - Real Vegan Cheese Online Meeting

The Real Vegan Cheese (https://realvegancheese.org/) project is an award-winning collaboration between BioCurious and our sister lab Counter Culture Labs (http://counterculturelabs.org/) in Oakland, to make real cheese without using any animals!

Real Vegan Cheese is a grassroots, non-profit research project working to produce real cheese using cellular agriculture. We add the genes for cheese proteins to yeast and other microflora, and turn them into little protein factories, then make real cheese by adding plant-based fats and sugars. Real Vegan Cheese is not a cheese substitute -- the cheesemaking process is just like using cow or goat milk! We are dedicated to Open Science and making sure the results of our research are available to the global community to enable a sustainable animal-free dairy industry.

We alternate Online and hands-on wetlab meetups every other week. This week will be an Admin meeting, so expect to talk about wetlab updates and plans, website design, business plans, improving our outreach efforts on social media, and more.
