Team meetups offer an opportunity for iGEM teams to bounce ideas off each other, collaborate, and meet other iGEM-ers!
Is your team getting together with other teams nearby?
Are you holding an event to promote your iGEM team?
Let us know about it here.
German team meetup - Aachen
Saturday September 13 and Sunday September 14
Aachen, Germany
Team Aachen is planning a German team meetup on September 13 and September 14 in Aachen! On September 13, there will be a public presentation of the participating iGEM teams with a discussion afterward with the general public. There will also be a team poster session open to the public. In the evening, there will be a social event for the teams to get to know each other. On September 14, the teams will be giving their presentation to the other iGEM teams in the same way it will be done during the Giant Jamboree.

Team LMU-Munich will be organizing a German team meetup from May 24 to May 26 in Munich! From Saturday to Sunday, teams will get to learn about each other's projects, and also network to develop human practice ideas, or possibly even bundle projects together. On Monday, the group is invited to a meeting of the LMU's Center of Advanced Studies about Synthetic Biology with other international speakers, and some teams may even be able to introduce their projects to the audience!
Past Meet-ups
UK team meetup
At the inaugural YSB conference, young synthetic biologists from 14 college UK iGEM teams, members of UK iGEM High School and Entrepreneurial teams came together to share their projects and initiate collaborations. This 2 day event featured team presentation, Q & A sessions, poster presentations, and break out sessions focusing on different skills you need in iGEM e.g human practices. There was also a social evening for all the teams to get to know each other.
