Art Bio Matters (ABM) 2023 is a three-day meeting that aims to provide a
stimulating forum to explore current and new directions in the study of
biological materials found in cultural heritage collections. This free,
limited-size (70-attendee) conference is your chance to connect with
like-minded colleagues and learn about the latest scientific advancements
supporting the study of biological materials found in cultural heritage
collections. ABM 2023 will bring together an equal representation of
specialists from a variety of fields, including science,
curatorial/cultural history, and conservation. The conference will focus on
the intersection of innovative science, material culture, and history, with
the goal of gaining new insights to advance our understanding of objects
and their preservation.

The unique format of ABM necessitates lively discussion and active
participation among a well-balanced group of attendees. The conference will
include team presentations, poster lightning rounds, working groups, a
business meeting crucial to the future of the ABM community, and moderated
breakout discussion sessions. These activities are all intended to
encourage networking, brainstorming, and engaging dialogue among attendees.

Join us at ABM 2023 to expand your knowledge, make meaningful connections,
and contribute to the study of biological materials found in cultural
heritage. We welcome everyone who shares our passion for the intersection
of science and material culture. Please share this announcement widely with
your colleagues!
