"In iGEM, projects are considered from multiple perspectives—ranging from fundamental research and practical applicability to funding and societal acceptance. At the same time, iGEM provides the opportunity to take on responsibility, work closely within a team, and develop innovative solutions both strategically and creatively.

I would like to use this opportunity to gain new experiences, apply what I have learned, and look beyond the boundaries of university life."
