Members of the DGfZ can apply for a subdomain of the DGfZ web presence.
What does that mean ?
Sometimes the web pages of your laboratory, institute, core facility or your personal home pages are hard to find, because they have some cryptic web address. For example http://www.ukb.uni-bonn.de/IMMEI/flowcore/index.html. As a member of the society you can now apply for a subdomain of the DGfZ that includes your name. The above web address then translate into www.elmar-endl.dgfz.org.
If somebody now enters www.elmar-endl.dgfz.org into the address bar of the browser he will be redirected to the original web page.You now have a web address that is easier to remember both by yourself and other you send your contact data.
If this would be useful for you just send the application to Dr. Elmar Endl, including the address you want your visitors to be redirected to. We then will set up a subdomain www.firstname-surname.dgfz.org for you. We hope this might simplify the search for members of the DGfZ and their corresponding web presentations. Other subdomains might also be suggested and it is up to the council if they find it appropriate that this subdomain will be hosted under the domain of the DGfZ.
