| * Innovation: We invited all german teams to the [https://2012.igem.org/Team:LMU-Munich/Human_Practice/CAS_Conference CAS synthetic biology conference] enabling them to arrange collaborations, discuss there projects with other teams as well as with the experts visiting this international conference. Also the attendance at the talks about many topics of synthetic biology might have inspired some of the members of teams to new approaches. <br>

* Safety: We designed the [https://2012.igem.org/Team:LMU-Munich/Germination_Stop <b>Germination</b>STOP] with the two approaches of germination gene knock out and the <b>Suicide</b> switch. This makes the chassis we use for our project safe to use as we also discussed with commissioner for Bio-Safety in Bavaria. See the summary of the discussion [https://2012.igem.org/Team:LMU-Munich/Project_Safety here]<br>

* Sharing: We envision an iGEM world where work with ''Bacillus subtilis'' is as easy as work with ''E. coli'' and as most work is done with strains having a plasmid integrated the sharing of the plasmid is not as essential as the sharing of the strain itself. It is the possible to transfer the gDNA and therefore this element into any other strain (if the integration locus is not already used) quit easy. To accomplish this the lab of AG Prof. Thorsten Mascher offers to maintain a [https://2012.igem.org/Team:LMU-Munich/Strains Bacillus strain collection] were one can send in strains or get strains available from the community
