Accelerating clean meat fish production (Old ID 28945)

James Cook University
Role

Principal Investigator

Description

Our aim is to build a new technology to mass-produce sustainable Clean Meat Seafood at low cost. This will enable us to: (i) feed the world’s population, (ii) prevent further exploitation of the world’s oceans and overfishing of endangered wild-caught species, (iii) to avoid the high environmental costs associated with aquaculture, and (iv) provide a sustainable and safe alternative of those species that cannot be successfully reared and grown in an aquaculture setting.
