Food Truths

The Godfather of Modern Food Science: Pat Brown, Founder of Impossible Foods


Listen Later

Today my guest is Dr. Pat Brown, current professor at Stanford University and most well-known as the founder and former CEO of Impossible Foods, maker of the Impossible burger. We take some time to talk about how he came to a career in food science because, as you'll soon learn, he was doing very different science before.


Pat was already a rockstar in the scientific world when he founded Impossible, and so we learn about what makes his creative mind tick, how he up-ended food science, and what he's trained his curiosity on these days. You can reach Dr. Brown at Stanford University [https://profiles.stanford.edu/patrick-brown].
