Re: [DIYbio] Re: DIYbio in Heidelberg, Germany

Sorry for the late reply, I was overwhelmed with work, but I'd like to continue the discussion.
That's a pity that they stopped the renovation, are you guys planning to find some other way of doing it?

At the moment I am giving priority to find people interested in DIYbio here. Regarding a possible community lab, I thought that such a thing would require some sort of funding to be viable, so I am pursuing a different way: I am in contact with people involved in biotech enterpreneurship and science communication from both the industrial and academic environment: the idea was to look for seed funding or at least the possibility for a lab space in the technology park here. Surprisingly, I am recieving quite a good feedback, many people seem interested and would like to see something like this in heidelberg and are helping me at different levels: from support on pitch presentations to putting me in contact with possible investors.

The most probable channel for this is at the moment through a science association which also has a lab for biology training. Apparently students there are already familiar with DIYbio and would be enthusiasts to have the community lab there. In the next days, we'll discuss about the actual possibilities.
