El aumento de la población global en las próximas décadas y la carnificación de las dietas en Asia y África generarán una demanda significativa de carne, lo que plantea preocupaciones sobre el bienestar animal, la salud pública, la seguridad alimentaria y la sostenibilidad de la producción animal convencional. La Zootecnia Celular ofrece una respuesta prometedora a estos desafíos. Este estudio detalla la implementación de la Zootecnia Celular en la Universidad Federal de Paraná, incluyendo el desarrollo de los primeros cursos de Introducción a esta disciplina a niveles de grado y posgrado, así como la creación del Laboratorio de Zootecnia Celular. Además, se conceptualizó el proyecto de extensión Bife Sin Bestia para difundir conocimientos sobre productos animales cultivados y otras proteínas alternativas, involucrando tanto a la comunidad universitaria como al público en general. Los hallazgos indican que la Universidad ha avanzado significativamente en este campo al establecer cursos, un laboratorio y actividades de extensión. Existe una fuerte demanda de los estudiantes por capacitación práctica en sistemas de producción de proteínas alternativas, lo que subraya la necesidad de más desarrollos laboratoriales para la enseñanza. La integración de investigación, enseñanza y extensión ha promovido el conocimiento científico y el interés de los estudiantes en la Zootecnia Celular, destacando el potencial de este modelo para formar profesionales calificados y aumentar la conciencia sobre alternativas sostenibles a la producción animal intensiva.
