The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has issued two actions to address per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in drinking water.

Vireo, and our co-authors at Baylor University, have published a study advancing the use of alternative testing strategies for nanomaterial safety assessments.

Over the past year, we at Vireo Advisors, an expert advisory consultancy focused on the safe and sustainable commercialization of new technologies, worked with New Harvest, a nonprofit focused on advancing cellular agriculture through research, to prepare a landmark manuscript about the safety of cultured meat — co-created with cultured meat companies from around the world.

The New Harvest/Vireo Advisors safety collaboration took a first look at identifying and characterizing cell ag safety research needs independent of regulatory considerations that will benefit the entire sector with methods and data needed to demonstrate safety.
