Who could I interview for the lab-grown meat primary research?
I am currently in the “Sidney Harman Writer-In-Residence” Program. My assignment for the final paper is to write an article on a topic that I choose, using primary sources. I want to write about the emergence of the lab-grown food industry.

Congratulations on being part of the Sidney Harman Writer-In-Residence Program, Anastasiia.
For primary research on lab-grown meat, consider interviewing experts from:
1. Companies:
- Memphis Meats (CEO Uma Valeti)
- Mosa Meat (CEO Maarten Bosch)
- Just (CEO Josh Tetrick)
- Aleph Farms (CEO Didier Toubia)
2. Research Institutions:
- Tufts University (Professor David Kaplan, Biomedical Engineering)
- University of California, Davis (Professor Alison Van Eenennaam, Animal Science)
- Cornell University (Professor Susan Schroeder, Food Science)
3. Regulatory Agencies:
- FDA (Food and Drug Administration)
- USDA (United States Department of Agriculture)
4. Industry Associations:
- Good Food Institute (GFI)
- Cellular Agriculture Society
5. Scientists and Researchers:
- Dr. Mark Post (Maastricht University, pioneer in lab-grown meat)
- Dr. Pat Brown (Stanford University, founder of Impossible Foods)
Reach out to these individuals/organizations via:
1. Email (use your university email for credibility)
2. Phone or video calls
3. In-person interviews (if possible)
4. LinkedIn messages
Prepare thoughtful questions, such as:
1. What drives the growth of the lab-grown meat industry?
2. How do you address scalability and cost-effectiveness?
3. What are the biggest regulatory challenges?
4. How do you ensure product safety and quality?
5. What role do you see lab-grown meat playing in the future of food?
Some additional resources:
1. National Geographic's "The Future of Food" series
2. The Guardian's "Lab-grown meat" coverage
3. Scientific American's "Clean Meat" articles
Ensure you fact-check and verify information, and properly cite your sources.
Good luck with your article, Anastasiia!
