How can the next generation of biotech shape a more resilient and resource-efficient food system? At this edition of SustainaLab Talks, leading researchers and industry voices unpack the potential of epigenetic editing — from crops and fermentation to cultivated meat — and what it means for sustainability, safety, regulation and adoption.
February 2, 2026
SustainaLab, Amsterdam Science Park
15:30 – 18:00 (including networking drinks)
Join experts including Pernette Verschure (University of Amsterdam), Marianne R. Rots (UMCG), Jason Gardiner (Utrecht University), Michelle Habets (Rathenau Institute & WUR) and Michiel Meeuse (Next Food Collective). A panel with representatives such as KeyGene will explore real-world opportunities and next steps for epigenetic innovation in food and agriculture.
This talk is relevant for professionals across agri-food, biotech and policy, as well as students and curious minds looking beyond traditional plant breeding toward smart biological solutions.
