Sueddeutsche Zeitung
In June we had an interview with Sueddeutsche Zeitung, one of most renowned newspapers in Germany. It was published in the 153th issue on the 6th of July 2011. Unfortunatly we cannot link the article here, since it is currently only available for paying subcribers.
on3-radio
A reporter of on3-radio which is the youth section of the bavarian broadcast (Bayrischer Rundfunk) came to our laboratory and made a short interview! They gave us the opportunity to explain our project and what fascinates us about iGEM and synthetic biology. If you can understand German, listen to the podcast on the homepage of on3-radio.
UniSPIEGEL
In October the UniSPIEGEL visited us. UniSPIEGEL is part of one of the most renowned magazines in Germany - DER SPIEGEL. They will be featuring iGEM and our project in an article at around the middle of November. This way, students of all different majors in Germany will get to know about iGEM. This is really exciting!

biotechnology.tv
We are featured in an report on biotechnologie.de about the iGEM Team of the TU Munich and an article on biotechnologie.de about the German iGEM Teams in gerneral. Biotechnologie.de is a German website, which was initiated by the federal ministry of education and research (Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung). It serves the purpose of informing and educating the public about current topics in biotechnology. They produce videos, which explain principles like enzymes, ion channels and new approaches in molceular medicine in a simple way, in order to make it understandable for non-scientists. We think this is a great idea and are proud to be part of one of their shows.
