As the cultured meat debate continues to progress with the
advancement of the technology, it is important for all segments of
the industry impacted by the development of cultured meat to collaborate and strategize in order to effectively manage the evolution of
meat production systems. Interdisciplinary collaboration between
the biological sciences and social sciences is also recommended as
this technology advances. While biological scientists work to perfect
the technology and create a marketable product, researchers in the
social sciences should work to explore and shape consumers' perceptions and acceptance of the product. Further research should explore
consumers' perceptions and availability of cultured meat.
It is important to note that both the articles included in the sample
as well the researchers' interpretations of the articles limit this study.
These limitations are both common with qualitative research (Pauly,
1991).
