Radio and TV

• After publishing our [http://ekvv.uni-bielefeld.de/blog/uninews/entry/using_bacteria_batteries_to_make first press release], radio and TV stations contacted us to have interviews or a short TV report with us. Further we contacted local radio stations. This was a great chance for us to talk about our project regarding to biological and environmental aspects. We were part of the OWL Lokalzeit, a regional news show, which is procasted in North Rhine Westfalia via the TV station Westdeutscher Rundfunk (WDR). Furthermore Radio Bielefeld performed a short interview and video clip with us. Besides we had two interviews at Radio Hertz 87.9 (Bielefeld University campus radio) to inform students at our university about Synthetic Biology, the iGEM competition and our project. Last but not least we had a contribution in the US internet news show Daily Orbit.
