Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are lipid bilayer-delimited nanoparticles that are naturally secreted by almost all types of cells to establish intercellular communication. EVs has been traditionally obtained from human cell in culture, but this possess severe limitations in terms of safety, scalability and significant operational cost. These issues motivated researchers to explore alternative EVs sources, in particular, food such as bovine milk and plants, which have the main advantages of.

AgriFood Startups and farmers struggle to come together and gain access to each other’s field of action. Within our regional project “Food Entrepreneurship made in Bavaria” we tried to bridge this gap and set up several event formats where both sides could meet and engage. Friederike will share some learnings and insights from her work in Bavaria.

The presentation will pitch the project as employing a food-systems thinking approach to help understand the role cultured meat and seafood might play in a resilient, equitable and sustainable food system.
