In Loco Parentis

In Loco Parentis aims to engage a diverse consortium of potential stem cell donors, community groups, ethicists, lawmakers and a specially trained AI on the possibility of using pluripotent stem cells collectively to form a (mosaic) human embryo model – a collaborative artificial embryo model ‘parented’ by a collaboratively trained artificial intelligence. 

Made in collaboration with Prof. Susana Chuva de Sousa Lopes

The project is being hosted by The Culture Yard in Denmark, and funded by the European Digital Deal / Creative Europe through ARS Electronica. Further support from the Royal College of Art, London and MU Hybrid Arthouse, Eindhoven.
