Team:LMU-TUM Munich/HP/Silver

In our this year's project we put a major emphasis the Human Practices track. We cover several of the mult-facet fields that iGEM summarizes under Human Practices and. Furthermore, we aimed at excellence in all the projects that we conducted. We not only scratched the surface but deeply investigated safety concerns, designed and organized educational courses, and hosted a public outreach event on the topic of „Perspectives of synthetic biology in biotechnology and medicine”. We proudly present our achievements on the pages that are linked below.

PUBLIC OPINION: Panel discussion on SynBio

We hosted a large public outreach event. Leading scientists, medical doctors, tech communicators, and ecologists discussed „Perspectives of synthetic biology in biotechnology and medicine”. Our event was extremely well visited. The audience followed the interesting panel discussion and we had a vital, interactive session afterwards.
