iGEM at the University of Münster

Welcome to the website of the iGEM team of the University of Münster

In 2022, the University of Münster sent a team to the international iGEM competition for the very first time!  Since then, this journey has continued consistently.

Now there is also a team from the University of Münster in 2026.

You can find detailed information about the project from the past two years on our iGEM Wikis:

P.A.C. Immunity - PROTECT AND CAPTURE - The Immune Biosensor for Crop Plants

University of Münsters iGEM Team presents this year's project: 

P.A.C. Immunity - PROTECT AND CAPTURE - The Immune Biosensor for Crop Plants

"We develop modular and minimally invasive, protease-responsive immune switches. By introducing precise insertions into the natural immune receptors of crop plants, we can equip our plants to fight off pathogens on their own. Instead of a wildfire, crop pathogen defense becomes a subtle, almost invisible trait."
