Accelerating transition away from factory farms

Reversing climate change by removing carbon from the atmosphere depends on finding alternatives not only to fossil fuels but also to facets of animal agriculture, particularly overfishing and factory farming. The cultivated meat modeling consortium (theCMMC.org - there's a short video there that will provide more context) is committed to accelerating progress in developing cultivated meat as one such alternative. The CMMC brings together diverse stakeholders to apply computational methods to help the nascent cultivated meat industry as it works to bring high-quality real meat products to market. We are looking for an experienced and strategic grant writer to help as we shift the cultivated meat modeling consortium from a for-profit subsidiary to a non-profit. The grant writer will need to identify and pursue opportunities for funding with help from the approximately 100 CMMC members. Compensation will be largely on the back end: we have a limited budget today, but the opportunity is enormous (the amount of funding for cultivated meat research and for cultivated meat companies has been rising exponentially in the past few years).
