Let me start with #insulin. In the 1970s, insulin was extracted from the pancreas of animals. In the 1980s, @Genentech, working with Eli Lilly (@LillyPad), developed insulin using a new technology that I call #PrecisionFermentation. It wasn’t animal insulin. It was human insulin.
The mainstream would say: “health care is slow, it can’t be disrupted.”
Well, here’s the S-curve of #PrecisionFermentation human insulin. Human insulin disrupted animal insulin in about 13 years.

#PrecisionFermentation is a concept that I coined in my @rethink_x report ‘Rethinking Food and Agriculture’ with @CatherineTubb in September 2019.

2/n Yuki is a lot into Sci-Fi and that's what go him excited about cultured meat in the first place: It's the meat of the future!
3/n #CulturedMeat is already a lot cheaper today than it used to be 5 years ago but there's still two big problem about: You need cell lines (GMO's) as a starting material and growth factors as media supplement!
