Calling all researchers and practitioners with hands-on experience in biodesign, biofabrication, and biomaterials to participate in Growing Bio-HCI at CHI! This workshop aims to facilitate a time and space for the Bio-HCI community to exchange biomaterial recipes, biofabrication tools, biomaking practices, and biodesigned artifacts, as well as discuss some practical challenges that researchers face and opportunities for how this work can grow in the future. The workshop will be entirely in-person, consisting of two 90-minute sessions for an experienced group of 10-20 practitioners. 

We invite submissions in the form of a material, tool, practice, and/or artifact for the Bio-HCI community. All submissions are due February 20 AoE via the submission link. Submissions should be in a vertical A5 format (see examples and template here). We will review submissions in relation to workshop goals and make selections based on the depth and diversity of the contribution. Accepted submissions will be compiled into a collective zine, which will be posted on our website, published on the open-source arXiv platform, and printed out to be physically distributed in Barcelona. To attend this workshop, you must register for both the workshop and one day of the main conference.
