WCH welcomes the founder of Jimi Biotechnology Co.

According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, animal husbandry accounts for more than one-sixth of total human greenhouse gas emissions. This means that the emerging technology for cultured meat production is of vital importance in the low-carbon and green development of animal husbandry, and it also contributes to the goal of reaching carbon neutrality and the emission peak in China. Jimi, a well-known enterprise located in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, has committed to propelling humanity towards a future with slaughter-free animal protein production. Jimi has already made breakthroughs in cultured meat technology by successfully developing China's first 100% cell-based meat without the use of any plant scaffolding. Then, what exactly is cultured meat? What are the scientific principles included in its production process? In June, Mr. Cao Zhehou, the founder of Jimi, was invited to Wellington College Hangzhou to give a presentation to Huili and Wellington pupils and teachers. Read on and join us on this journey of science. 

Mr. Cao started his presentation with the story of his learning journey, his academic life abroad, and how he was inspired by science.
