Websites, patent fillings, videos etc. (3)

OLIGOMED website established

The website will provide an introduction to the topic of ON and present the breadth of available DNA technologies and their medical applications in layman terms to make this site work also an educational tool The website will also serve additional communication purposes such as establishing transparency on project partners and funding informing about OLIGOMED activities and achievements as well as enabling interaction with interested parties such as registration for newsletter or training events and links to social media

"15 Recordings of ""PhD in 3 minutes"""

The ESRs will do a threeminute presentation with the aid of exactly one slide to describe their project This version during OLIGOMED week 2021 presents the project aims in its wider context and first advancements The presentations are aimed at the general public for awareness of OLIGOMED and promoting science through societal impactThis deliverable will be updated in month 22 to reflect the second recording with due date month 41The ESRs will do a threeminute presentation with the aid of exactly one slide to describe their project This version in OLIGOMED week 2023 presents the major results impact and outlook The presentations are aimed at the general public for awareness of OLIGOMED and promoting science through societal impact

OLIGOMED Video

A threeminute clip will be produced that presents the overarching aim of the project 12 illustrative example ESR projects and the relevance for the general public It will be made available on the website and on YouTube
