Eye of the Storm Symposium, Tate Britain
I will be presenting my arts/research: “Pluripotent Stem Cells: an artist grows her own…” at the “Eye of the Storm” 2 day Symposium on scientific controversy at Tate Britain. I will be speaking about my adult stem cell project: ‘machina carnis’ during which I cultured adult stem cells from my blood and carried out an experiment to make them ’change fates’ into beating cardiac cells over 7 days in the laboratory. this project was part of my on-going enquiries into corporeality & the self which are continuing in the virtual world of ‘mellifera’.

Hi Trish,
Enjoyed your presentation at the ‘eye of the storm’, just wondered what the reference was for the paper that describes the method you used for obtaining stem cells from peripheral blood.
Just for curioisity I’d really like to read it.
