Ep 27 - 3D printing meat in the lab!

As many of us know, meat consumption negatively impact the environment but eating meat is so engrained in our lifestyle that it's hard to switch to plant-based diet. Even with the rise of plant-based meat, it's still not the same thing. So how can we still consume meat without harming the environment? How about lab grown meat?! Many scientists around the world are currently working on this, and in this episode, let's learn how researchers at Osaka University tackle this challenging task!
