Creating a Protein Thermostability Dataset to Accelerate Cultured Meat and Seafood Development
Jan 2025 - June 2026
-
This project aims to create an open-source, curated dataset that incorporates direct measurements of growth factor thermostability.
-
We are aggregating protein thermostability data from the public domain and generating in vitro and in silico data on growth factor thermostability.
Data will be processed for compatibility with AI/ML workflows and released in an open-source format, facilitating field-wide data-sharing and providing a foundation for developing AI/ML models for growth factor thermostability to understand the safety of their use in the production of cultured meat.
