with Isha Datar

Isha Datar coined and help popularize the term "cellular agriculture" to define an emerging future she wanted to live in. Over the past decade, her leadership has helped turn the field — the science, industry, and public image — from a distant dream to an imminent reality. We talk about the art of field-building, and why we need this type of cultural entrepreneurship more than ever.
