JuniorJam – a beautiful tradition continues into the fourth round.

Since the beginning of iGEM Münster in 2022, it has been tradition to organize a meetup in late summer in our beloved city. The combination of networking, scientific input, and discussion exemplifies how iGEM empowers the next generation of scientists.

Once again, our meetup will feature a series of engaging presentations to encourage scientific discourse and connections. Additionally, two panel discussions will provide an opportunity to learn about pressing contemporary issues. Of course, there will be plenty of opportunities for networking and socializing as well.

Each participating iGEM team will have the chance to present their project, poster, and promotion video to a jury of veteran iGEM judges and receive feedback. Look forward to captivating speakers, stimulating discussions, networking opportunities, and excellent food.

Prepare well, as there are prizes to be won! We look forward to welcoming you in July!

**Digital Handbook:**
Just as we started last year, we would like to create a digital handbook for you again this year. This will serve as a reminder of the unforgettable weekend. You can also read up on the topics, that the speakers will cover, or gain initial insights into the projects of the other participating teams. To this end, we require the following deliverables from you:
•⁠  ⁠A logo of your project
•⁠  ⁠A team photo - preferably in landscape format so that it can be fitted onto the pages more easily.
•⁠  ⁠A short abstract of your project with a maximum of 600–700 characters.
The deadline for all digital handbook deliverables is Sunday 20th July at 23:59! Please note that we cannot include your team in the handbook if you do not send us the deliverables in time!

 

Please hand in all of your deliverables via mail to igem@uni-muenster.de . If you encounter any problems, let us know per mail or whatsapp and we will find a solution :). Looking forward to learning more about your stunning projects and spending a great weekend together!
