Media Attention

TU/e Press

We have been in contact with a science information officer of the TU/e press, that showed enthusiasm towards our project and iGEM in general. Unfortunately, any publication resulting from this talk will not be published in time to be published here.

TU/e Facebook Reporters

On the 7th of October it was quite busy in our BioLab, since the film crew of the TU/e Facebook Reporters was present. The TU/e Facebook Reporters make short video reports on research projects and daily life in and around the campus. The aim of these video reports is to not only show to the students and employees of University of Technology in Eindhoven what is happening on the campus grounds, but also to high school students and other youth that have an interest in technology what life at TU/e is like. An afternoon of filming resulted in some nice shots and hopefully a clear view on synthetic biology and our project. The video report will soon be available on the YouTube channel of the TU/e Facebook Reporters.

Dutch Biotechnology Association

The Dutch Biotechnology Association (NBV) has sent an update of the projects of all dutch iGEM teams in the October edition of their newsletter. The Dutch Biotechnoloy Association is an association of professionals in the area of applied Life Sciences and aims to promote an intergrated approach of scientific disciplines when it comes to biological systems. The full article “iGEM: Nederlandse teams vol zelfvertouwen aan de slag” is available in Dutch.
