Earlier this year, we published a first-of-it’s kind review of the applications for artificial intelligence and machine learning to accelerate research and development in cultured meat.

Now, we are excited to announce the recipient of the Machine Learning in Cellular Agriculture Residency: Ali Parsaee!

Ali is a machine learning scientist with a bachelors of science in biological sciences from the University of Calgary and a Masters of Computer Science from the University of Alberta. During this year-long research position, supported by New Harvest and the Alberta Machine Intelligence Institute (AMII), Ali will develop a machine learning model to help optimize cell culture media for cultured meat applications.

The project continues to be supported by Schmidt Futures, a philanthropic initiative founded by Eric and Wendy Schmidt.
