<h3>Best Education and Public Engagement Special Prize</h3>
+
       
−
<p>Over the last few years, we have seen teams produce some truly outstanding work in the areas of education and public engagement. Innovative educational tools and public engagement activities have the ability to discuss the science behind synthetic biology, spark new scientific curiosity and establish a public dialogue about synthetic biology from voices/views outside the lab.

Education and public engagement

YouTube

This year our team initiated an educational YouTube channel in collaboration with five other teams spanning four different continents. We were able to implement our initial idea to create an international platform to which we promote iGEM, explain the general concepts of synthetic biology and inform about new exciting projects. Our channel reaches out to students who are not aware of iGEM yet and holds great potential to inspire and educate future iGEM teams in a multicultural and exhilarant way.

Student Outreach: Lab tour

Additionally, we wanted to grant students from a local school who had a particular interest in science a direct insight into our laboratories. We showed them basic techniques of molecular biology, gave them the opportunity to participate in the process themselves and gain hands-on knowledge in the lab.

Student Outreach: Student internship

Furthermore, we invited an international student from China as an intern to our lab. This gave us the opportunity to mentor an highly motivated student and expand our skills as educators. She contributed to our project as well by taking on tasks such as producing agarose gels, lab supplies and pipetting PCR mixtures and contributed significantly to our part of the 2017 iGEM InterLab study.

Student Outreach: Panel discussion

The issue of antibiotic resistance is a highly controversial topic in both the public eye and the scientific community. We organized workshops for young people from different backgrounds to inform them about the current issues and potential solutions. We invited 22 young students to join us in a panel discussion called: “Nothing In Pipeline? - The Problem Of Modern Antibiotic Research”. We aimed to illustrate how their own life can be dangerously affected by antibiotic resistance and how they can potentially contribute to the problem in the future.
We divided the students into groups and provided each with materials about the topic. The students had to do they own research and present the issues during a guided discussion. Our primary focus was the fact that the research on new antibiotics stagnated since the development costs considerably outway the profit. Most of the students haven’t been aware of how critical the topics have become and how much they could positively impact the process.
With our workshops and the panel discussion, we were able to demonstrate how important it is to be aware of antibiotic resistance and its causes and was is needed to prevent a further progression of the process. This way we sensitized potential future scientists and doctors to think critically and ethically when it comes to the development and the application of antibiotics.
