4. Computer modeling applied to cultivated meat
In the broadest sense, the core technical development areas in
cultivated meat R&D and commercialization, as defined in the CMMC June
meeting, can be grouped as basic science, process challenges and product
challenges. Herein, we define important data-based prerequisites that
are generally required to implement computer modeling approaches and
then we briefly explore several projects in some of the core technical
development areas where computer modeling techniques may be applied. To
explore these projects, we start by identifying the problem and/or
optimization objective, describe the problem’s relevance to the
cultivated meat field, and then demonstrate how computational modeling
may be used to address these challenges.
