The purpose of this programme is to take people with an interest in alternative proteins and help them to gain a more profound understanding of the scientific and sociopolitical challenges in the field. From the programme run by The Cambridge Alt Protein Project in early 2022, it became apparent that engagement with alternative protein material over multiple weeks results in participants taking tangible steps to direct their research or career towards this area. In addition, this programme serves as an introduction for members looking to join our chapter and to accumulate knowledge about student interest in alternative protein didactics in order to establish official faculty-taught courses at our partner universities in the midterm.
