Episode Synopsis
This is the third and final episode in our 3-part podcast series exploring Wageningen University’s new Cellular Agriculture curriculum. In this episode, we speak with Dr. Mariana Hase Ueta and Dr. Zoë Robaey, co-organizers of the course “Becoming Food: Cellular Agriculture Beyond the Lab”, which was held during Period 1. Together, they discuss how the course was designed to engage students with the societal dimensions of cellular agriculture, encouraging critical reflection on the cultural, ethical, and political implications of cultivated meat. We explore how students responded to the course, the kinds of conversations it sparked, and what challenges and developments may lie ahead as this emerging field continues to grow beyond the lab.
