21.-25 May: Achema 2012
The Achema is the worlds largest exhibition for chemistry, chemical engineering and biotechnology. We have the comfortable situation to study in the town were this event takes place every forth year. We thought the local iGEM team should not be missing there and followed the invitation of the Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung (Federal ministry for education and research, BMBF) and presented our project. Not only did we have the possibility to inform our self about the newest inovations, we were also able to establish contact to people who work in adjacent fields.
