Dear Students from TUM and LMU who are interested in iGEM.

In 2021 iGEM Munich will most likely not form a team. This is mostly due to the ongoing corona pandemic and limited laboratory space. The cycle starts in november with recruiting and ends in november at the giant jamboree.

This post is meant as a One, where you can find each other! Comment if youre interested, interact. Forming an IGEM team is about your initiative!

Group together this year and try to initiate a new team starting september. If you have a real grouped initiative with a professional vision, feel free to contact this account. Then we can together ponder on how to approach for example one of the strong igem supporting professors like Prof. westmeyer, Simmel, Jung, Skerra.

Cheers

Dominic
