The IBMC•INEB has supported artist residencies in laboratories. So far we had two resident artists. Maria Manuela Lopes at IBMC with the project CAGE-SSI (Cell Activation and Gene Expression – Site Specific Instalation) and Soraya Vasconcelos at INEB with the project PINOCCHIO.

Rede de Residências: Experimentação Arte | Ciência e Tecnologia was born from a partnership between Ciência Viva, Instituto das Artes and Ministério da Cultura. This programme aims to encourage artistic creation and dissemination of knowledge between scientists and artists. Seven science research institutions are currently integrated in the Rede de Residências. Within this network, artists are invited to develop experimental and multidisciplinary projects with tools and processes usually used in scientific research.
The projects can be developed in areas such as architecture, visual arts, dance, design, music and theatre and can last up to six months. During the residency period each artist is guided by a scientist in order to acquaint him/her with the necessary scientific procedures.
The Associate Laboratory IBMC.INEB belongs to this residency network. At IBMC, the artist Maria Manuela Lopes has developed the CAGE SSI project and at INEB, Soraya Vasconcelos developed a piece named PINOCCHIO (http://www.cienciaviva.pt/divulgacao/arteeciencia).
