Communication of science related topics / Public relations

Hello - Glad you could make it!

My name is Marcella Becker and I am responsible for Public Relations and Science Communication at Department 3. Since September 2013 I have been working at Faculty 3 of the University of Bremen. I started in the research group Cognitive Neuroinformatics. Since January 2018 I am exclusively responsible for public relations and it gives me great pleasure. My work concerns everything concerning public relations, from press inquiries, events and science communication to networking within the department and its working groups.

Public relations is a growing area and helps the department to communicate your concerns to the public. Our working groups have so many different interesting and important projects that should not be withheld from the public. Since this position has only been filled since the beginning of the year, I am still developing various projects, but I certainly do not lack ideas. A very large part of my work concerns our new FB 3 website. We would like to make the new FB 3 pages active and lively. It should be worthwhile to go to the pages and especially to the homepage every now and then, because we will fill them regularly with new articles, news, calendar entries and interviews.

In order to achieve a good networking within the department, the FB 3 Science Communication Network was created. In these meetings, all public relations issues within Department 3 are discussed. It is an offer for exchange and the idea to profit from each other. If you would like to come to the quarterly meetings, just write me an e-mail.
