Science March

On the 22nd of April we took to the streets to protest for science as part of the ‘March of Science’! Science as one of the keystones of a modern society does not only follow us in our daily routine as scientists, it also leads mankind to a better future. In times of alternative facts and chemtrails, it is our duty to stand up for valid and verifiable research. Before the march started, there was a ‘science picknick’ where we had the chance to talk about our project ideas and iGEM.

One hour later we enthusiastically started marching together with the other science supporters!

Spritzerstand

To inform our fellow students and friends about our work, we organized a "Spritzerstand". We had a good time discussing our project and also raised some money.

Our charming team.

Muthgassen Sommerfest

Summer is here, let's give a big cheer! Our Team celebrated the beginning of summer by selling home-baked cakes and coffee at the "Muthgassen Sommerfest" where we were able to raise some money for this project. Here are a few pictures that captured the good atmosphere of that evening.
