Passage Two
段落二
In a small laboratory at the Medical University of South Carolina, Dr. Vladimir Mironov has been working for a decade to grow meat.
在美國南卡羅萊納醫科大學的一個小實驗室里，弗拉基米爾·米羅諾夫十年來一直潛心鉆研“種肉”。
A developmental biologist and tissue engineer, Dr. Mironov, is one of only a few scientists worldwide involved in bioengineering 'cultured' meat.
米羅諾夫博士是一位生物學家和組織工程師，也是全世界為數不多的通過生物工程“培育”肉的科學家之一。
It's a product he believes could help solve future global food crises resulting from shrinking amounts of land available for growing meat the old-fashioned way.
他相信，由于可以用來飼養蹄類動物的土地日益匱乏，以舊方式養殖獲得的肉會越來越少，他“種”的肉可以用來幫助解決未來全球的糧食危機。
“Growth of cultured meat is also under way in the Netherlands”, Mironov told Reuters in an interview, “but in the United States, it is science in search of funding and demand.”
米羅諾夫在接受路透采訪時表示：“培育人造肉也在荷蘭進行，但在美國需要尋找資金和需求。”
The new National Institute of Food and Agriculture won't fund it, the National Institutes of Health won't fund it, and the NASA funded it only briefly, Mironov said.
米羅諾夫說，國家糧食和農業研究所、美國國立衛生研究院不提供資助，而美國宇航局只資助一點。
"It's classic disruptive technology," Mironov said. "Bringing any new technology on the market, on average, costs $1 billion. We don't even have $1 million."
米羅諾夫說：“這是典型的顛覆性技術。引領新技術走向市場平均需要花費10億美金，但是我們連100萬美金都沒有。”
Director of the Advanced Tissue Biofabrication Center in the Department of Regenerative Medicine and Cell Biology at the medical university, Mironov now primarily conducts research on tissue engineering, or growing, of human organs.
米羅諾夫，醫科大學再生醫學與細胞生物學部門，高級組織生物制造中心主任，主要進行人體器官組織工程或生長的研究。
"There's an unpleasant factor when people find out meat is grown in a lab. They don't like to associate technology with food, "said Nicholas Genovese, a visiting scholar in cancer cell biology.
尼古拉斯·吉諾維斯，癌癥細胞生物學的訪問學者說：“人們不喜歡看到肉生長在實驗室里。他們不喜歡食物和科技相連。”
"But there are a lot of products that we eat today that are considered natural that are produced in a similar manner, "Genovese said.
吉諾維斯說：“但是我們當今吃的很多被認為天然的食物都是以這種方式產生的。”
