Outreach


WLC-Milwaukee’s Outreach and Public Engagement work has taken place over the course of this past year and is a major focus of our team’s efforts. We have continued to develop relationships with local high schools, community members, and educational programs to facilitate the dissemination of misinformation regarding bioengineering and genetic modification. As a team we believe that engaging the community doesn’t simply mean ‘talking at them’ but talking to them and understanding how we as scientists can better communicate and inspire faith in scientific research in our increasingly disparate world.


Young Women in Science Program

The WLC-iGEM Team was able to continue our long running relationship with the Young Women in Science Program (YWSP) at Wisconsin Lutheran College to provide young high school aged women with lab experiences and study tips to help prepare them for a future in STEM! In March we worked with 13 young women interested in studying STEM in college to introduce them to bioengineering tools such as the basics of Cloning and Gel Electrophoresis. This was a great way for our team to engage with bright young women and expose them to tools of science they will likely utilize in college and discuss with these students the importance of bioengineering in our world.
