Public Engagement

Coming up in end of September

Our interview with Jo De Wachter! (This link will come online in the future) Their rationale for interviewing us was:
"In order to increase the visibility of our international research projects and the connection with our Master programs on the website of the Faculty of Science, we have created a new communication and outreach plan. In this plan, designed by vice-Dean Conny Aerts, several new actions and activities are being developed. One of the important aspects of this plan is the international reach of our educational programs and research projects, as displayed on our websites. We have concluded that narratives (attractive personal stories) of students, researchers and principal investigators of a research team, are the best way to attract more attention to our websites in order to boost international recruitment of motivated and talented international Master students."

A display with the history of KU Leuven iGEM is put in the Campuslibrary Arenberg (Willem de Croylaan 6 - 3001 Heverlee). This is the library of KU Leuven for exact sciences, engineering sciences, industrial engineering sciences, bio-engineering sciences, architecture and kinesiology and rehabilitation sciences. Our display includes pictures of the iGEM teams and the prices won and is visible when entering the library.

Bringing science closer to the people

One of our main goals was to bring science closer to the people. For this purpose, we have written a text for family, friends and people on Facebook and Twitter in their mother language (NL or EN) to spread the word. You can find this text here
