SynBio Day

During the Meetup all the german iGEM Teams had the possibility to participate at Workshops. One of them was the discussion about a german wide SynBio Day. Since the agreement to one single day seemed quite difficult, the participants at the Workshop agreed to a german wide SynBio Week, which was scheduled to the second week of August. On one day in this week each team has the possibility to present their projects to the broad public of their home town. The idea behind a SynBio day is to inform and try to work against prejudges regarding Synthetic Biology. These aims could be achieved by talking head to head with all kinds of people on public places or making informative videos addressing aspects of Synthetic Biology in order to reach people via social media or the team wiki. Furthermore we planed on designing a survey in order to get an idea about the german public opinion on Synthetic Biology.

Stay tuned for more details.
