Welcome to the website of the BioArt project.
The BioArt project, “BioArt: Borders and definitions. Research project for the development of a widely accepted deontological framework of its production and management”, is implemented by the Technological Educational Institute of Athens (TEI of Athens) coordinated by the Dept. Conservation of Antiquities and Works of Art in collaboration with researchers from the Panteion University of Athens and Columbia University (USA).
The project started on April 1st, 2012 and has duration of 30 months (the project has been extended until June 30th , 2015).
