Future Feasts #1: The Genetic Blueprint of our Food

Hardier crops, and better harvests: Today, scientists can edit the genetic blueprint of plants with unprecedented precision.

In the first episode of Future Feasts, Prof. Roee Ozeri explores how researchers are reshaping the plants we depend on, from sweeter tomatoes and disease-resistant crops to future mozzarella made in plants instead of cows. Through genome editing, plant chemistry, and molecular farming, scientists are rethinking how food can survive a changing planet, while remaining nutritious, sustainable, and delicious.

Featuring Prof. Avi Levy, Prof. Asaph Aharoni, Dr. Daniela Ben-Tov and Amit Cucuy.

Hosted by Prof. Roee Ozeri.
