Media
Media outreach is one of the most important things that needs to be done to support your own public relations program of your project. This is a part of our PR program which also encompasses areas like public speaking and social media.
Many media representatives have been contacted in order to draw the public’s attention to our synthetic biology project.
Within the synthetic biology one makes use of genetic modification. But many people are scared of the term ‘genetic modification’, because they are not aware of what this actually means. However synthetic biology is a great possibility to modify organisms so we can use them in a useful way. With this iGEM project we are enable to create awareness of the importance of synthetic biology. That’s why the media outreach is a good way to let people know that genetic modification is not necessarily a bad thing!
The project of the TU Delft iGEM team 2014, Electrace, received a lot of media attention from several newspapers, scientific magazines and also biology & biotechnology associations.
