Kindergarden St. Clara
We believe that it is a fundamental task to educate the public about synthetic biology and research in order to create an awareness and interest instead of fear. This is why our team contributed to teaching of sciences to children. In July, a member of our team visited the kindergarden of parish St. Clara in Munich for a whole morning to convey an idea of small living organisms using two microscopes. While explaining why microscopes are used, living water fleas were shown to 3-5 year old children. Afterwards new gained knowledge was reviewed and a connection to research and scientists was made. In general there was a broad interest among those children concerning living beings as well as surrounding nature.
