Webinar featuring Prof. Yoav Livney, Assoc. Prof. Maya Davidovich-Pinhas, and Asst. Prof. Luai Khoury
Could sustainable plant-based food alternatives created at the Technion help solve world hunger and mitigate the climate crisis? The recently launched Sustainable Protein Research Center (SPRC) is developing solutions to feed our growing population while cutting our carbon footprint. Hear from SPRC experts who are revolutionizing the field: Prof. Yoav Livney is working on exciting projects that include extracting edible protein from sea algae; Prof. Maya Davidovich-Pinhas’ research focuses on providing juicy and favorable textures to plant and cultured meat analogues; and Prof. Luai Khoury is pioneering new protein-based “smart” biomaterials.
