Ketto
A fundraiser was organized to crowdfund our project, as well as to showcase how iFLOAT, and synthetic biology in general can be used to address the big problem of highly expensive medical care. Various platforms were used to promote this fundraiser, such as creating a Youtube video to explain our project, reaching out to alumni of IISc who are now in various institutes around the world, and involving corporate donors.
Social Media
Social media was used effectively to reach out to interested followers, and provide updates regarding our project. The twitter handle of IISc iGEM was also used as a tool for interacting with other iGEM teams.
High School Presentations
As students of Science, it is our moral responsibility to inculcate scientific temperament in the future generation. An initiative in this regard was taken by visiting schools in Bangalore and Chennai, and telling them about career in scientific research, followed by an introduction to synthetic biology, iGEM and our project.
Challenge
To further engage with school students, a student challenge was designed to promote problem solving in students and at the same time, get their input to help us with our project. Students were given a question to solve which required them to think of a solution of their own, and feedback was given to the students on their proposed solution.
