Kevin Pan
Co-founder and Chief Technology Officer | in
Kevin Pan is a biochemist and an engineer with extensive experience in computer science, automation and biomedical regulations. Prior to his study at Imperial College London, he received his biomedical engineering degree (Dipl.-HTL-Ing.) with distinction from TGM in Austria, during which he had been very active in a wide spectrum of domains such as data science, robotics and cyber defence. With the rise of recent advancements in synthetic biology, he decided to return to school and undertake a Biochemistry course at Imperial College London, while working as a research assistant for Dr. Reiko Tanaka’s group at Biological Control Systems Lab. His research focuses on mathematical modelling of regulatory mechanisms against pathological agents in inflammatory diseases.
In 2018, he co-founded Multus Media, a group of talented scientists and engineers working on a low-cost, serum-free growth media that will help the cellular agriculture industry to succeed.
Cai Linton
Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer | in
Cai has a background in Molecular Bioengineering from Imperial College London. During his time at university, he led a 9-month project to design a paper-based microfluidic device for detecting antibiotic-resistant bacteria in low-resource areas. He has also spent 4 weeks working for TReND in Africa, a charity that supports the development of academic research institutions throughout Africa.
His motivation to create a sustainable future using biotechnology led him to co-found Multus Media to shorten routes to market and lower entry barriers in the cultivated meat industry.
Reka Tron
Co-founder and Chief Operating Officer | in
Reka has a degree in Biological Sciences specialising in Microbiology from Imperial College London. She has a background in regenerative medicine working on synthetic cardiac tissue as a research assistant in Prof Sian Harding's group, and in synthetic biology improving genetic stability of cyanobacteria in Dr Patrik Jones's group. She has wide ranging experiences around operations with almost 2 years as Head of European Operations at Circling Europe.
Being dedicated to making a positive impact in the world motivated her to unlock the cultivated meat industry through targeting the critical bottleneck of growth media through Multus Media.
Brandon Ma
Chief Scientific Officer | in
Brandon has a background in biochemistry at Imperial College London with a specialization in structural biology from working on structural elucidation of PRELI-TRIAP complex in Prof Steve Matthews Lab as well as extensive experience in protein biology.
He is leading the micrbobiological R&D within Multus Media and is currently focusing on using synthetic biology and expression engineering to drive down the cost of growth media.
