Human Outreach
Our aim in Human Outreach was to spread our word among a broad audience. We invested a lot of time and effort in this but we have been rewarded with many opportunities. Frank Theys is making a documentary about us and a few other laboratories. We were invited to discuss our project at the Life Symposium. We educated children at the Floriade and at the Nacht van de Kunst & Wetenschap. We discussed and explained our project at Llowlab, part of Lowlands, to (young) adults with many different backgrounds. So these past few months many interesting, critical and curious people crossed out project and we have been delighted to educate them and discuss our project with them.
Documentary with Frank Theys
Frank Theys makes a documentary about us and a few other labs which will be broadcasted by several TV-stations in different countries.
Floriade 2012
.
Nacht van de Kunst&Wetenschap
Nacht van de Kunst en Wetenschap means Night of Art & Science. It was held in Groningen. We were invited as one of the Llowlab partners and it was our first experience in educating the public about Synthetic Biology.
Life Symposium
The 14th of May the Life Symposium took place, organized by Life the study association of Life, Science & Technology. They invited us to talk about our project. Mark Weijers and Marcel Langelaan represented our team there and introduced our project to a high-minded audience. //////Page 25 is about our performance at the life symposium http://www.lifesciencesymposium.nl/img/lss2012_final_report.pdf
LowLands 2012 - LLowlab Fasten Your Future
Llowlab is the sustainable platform in a pond at Lowlands where innovative and sustainable projects or products get a chance to present themselves to the public. Scientist and inventors can reduce the gap between science and society. All the projects were explained by people with the help of t-shirts with an illustration and not explained by 'just' a poster. This gave a very nice interaction and a lot of room for questions. The audience was very broad but one thing they had all in common was that all of them were very interested. At Llowlab it all came together, professors and biologists with very critical questions about the biology, African people who were very interested in the potential for Africa and people from Green Peace with questions about the ethics.
