We successfully participated at the Europe Regional Jamboree


  • We were able to present our project to lots of interested people and got great feedback


  • We won a gold medal


  • We qualified for the World Championship at the MIT (Cambridge, MA)


  • And we had lots of fun

Project Achievements


  • We did successfully build the foundation for cell free biosensors


  • We were the first team to work with S-Layers and use them to create defined nano structures (Results)


  • We provided a system to quantify NAD+ with a Ligase and molecular beacons (Results)


  • We were able to degrade Bisphenol A (Results)


  • We could show that all of our three subprojects work


  • We have created several new working BioBricks (e.g. <partinfo>BBa_K525121</partinfo>, <partinfo>K525222</partinfo>, <partinfo>BBa_K525305</partinfo>, <partinfo>BBa_K525405</partinfo>, <partinfo>BBa_K525512</partinfo>, <partinfo>BBa_K525515</partinfo>, <partinfo>BBa_K525710</partinfo>)


  • We showed that our BioBricks work as expected


  • We could successfully characterize these BioBricks and entered the Information to the Partsregistry


  • We improved the existing Bispenol A degrading BioBricks (<partinfo>BBa_K123000</partinfo>, <partinfo>BBa_K123001</partinfo>)


  • We modeled our cell free biosensor system (Model)


  • We organized and participated in various events to improve the iGEM outreach (Overview)


  • We implemented safety considerations in our project by working on cell free systems


  • We got a lot of attention in Germany shown by press reports and invitations to various events


  • We were able to manage the project on our own from the sketchbook to the final project


  • We managed to completely finance our project through sponsoring (Sponsors)
