Media aims to bring the EMBS-IST closer to the academic community, transmitting relevant information regarding all the organization’s fronts of action – which incorporate the scientific and civic components that EMBS-IST team identifies themselves with – and providing a platform through which all interested people can share and learn. Therefore, besides active posting in several social networks, Media have two main activities: Newsletter and Pandora’s Box.
The EMBS-IST Newsletter is a monthly edition that seeks to scrutinize the activities of the organization, Técnico and Bioengineering community in an informative and critical way, as well as giving voice to the driving force that will ensure the permanence of this community – professors and students.
The Pandora’s Box consists of a set of informal gatherings in which professionals, students and enthusiasts are invited to discuss the most pressing ethical and moral issues concerning Bioengineering.
