Press for iGEM Bielefeld

We like to get a feedback to our work and to spread the world with the good opportunities of syntethic biology. Hence we did some cooperation with print, radio and tv media.

Print

Westfalen Blatt / local Newspaper: We got a leading article in a daily local newspaper, with a paid circulation of circa 150.000 copies. Moreover the paper used the opportunity to discuss the postive and negative sites of synthetic biology in a commentary.

Spiegel / national magazine The "Spiegel" is a weekly nationwide political megazine with 5.91 million readers. We got an advance notice in the section about research.

Online

The first thing for starting a PR-strategy is press releases. Therefore we have done two press relaeses during the project. The releases explain the iGEM competetion as well as our general project idea. It is important for us to state that the projects are organised by the students themselves, which means fundraising, pr and practical research. You can find the publications below, which followed the press release.

Our press releases were published by the biotechnolgy cluster of the federal state north rhine westphalia as well as by the department of education and research (Bundesminesterium für Bildung und Forschung).

Radio

WDR5:

We got the opportunity to present our project in a big federal state radio braodcast. The radio broadcast wdr5 is focused on culture events and research. They did three radio coverages, in order to present our project idea, the problems concerning the experimental research and the outcome of the project. Moreover they communicated to the public how research is done and what methods are used. The radio station can be received by approximately 18 million listernes (internetbased radio not counted).
