Methods and systems for in-vitro milk production

A system for in-vitro production of milk comprising:

• a. an array of vessels, each vessel comprising multicellular structures of mammary cells operably coupled to a tertiary-branched scaffold of hollow tubes and wherein each vessel is selectably removable from said array of vessels and wherein said mammary cells comprise post-parturition mammary epithelium cells;
• b. a nutrient supply reservoir operable to feed each vessel;
• c. a milk collection module, in communication with each vessel such that milk produced by said mammary cells is not in contact with nutrient stream from said nutrient supply reservoir and wherein said milk collection module further comprises a vacuum source;
• d. a central processing module (CPM) in communication with said vessels' array, said nutrient supply reservoir, and said milk collection module, said CPM being in further communication with at least one processor and a memory storage device, storing thereon a processor readable medium with a set of executable instructions, configured when executed to cause said at least one processor to control operation of each of the vessels' array, said nutrient supply reservoir, and said milk collection module;
• e. a housing operable to maintain controlled atmosphere over said array of vessels.
