From Fauna, formerly known as the Cellular Agriculture Society, is an international 501(c)(3) organization that has been involved in research, funding, advancement of, and most recently education in,[1] cellular agriculture.[2] [3] It is based in San Francisco,[4] and was founded by Kris Spiros[5] [6] in the early 2010s.[7]

In 2023, the Cellular Agriculture Society released Modern Meat, a freely available 600-page textbook[8] which was the first on the subject of cultured meat.[9] They have also created children's books, educational simulations, social science research, and designed the theoretical workings and architecture of a cultured meat facility through Project CMF,[10] which envisions what cultured meat production could look like in 2040.[11]
