From single cells to stack after stack of supplies

Every experiment starts right here! 🧬📦

Where the real magic happens in our lab: working with our cell culture flasks to grow and maintain our cells for iGEM Bielefeld 2026. Bringing our research to life takes time, precision, and the right tools.

A massive thank you to Sarstedt for supporting our research journey this year! With all these top tier supplies delivered and ready to go, we are set up for success in the lab. Time to put all these materials to good use! 🥼✨

What’s your favorite piece of lab equipment you couldn’t live without? Let us know below! 👇

Meet Sarah 🧪✨
Wet Lab Leader, design wizard, and the reason this team hasn’t gotten completely lost yet.
Somewhere between pipetting and Design, she keeps all of us on track - our very own guardian angel in a lab coat😇.

Give her some love in the comments, and hit that follow button for more of what she makes look easy. 💚

What even is this?😭😭

Could be buffer or could be cursed plasmid from an iGEM project in 2018🧪

To whoever left this unlabeled Eppendorf: I respect the confidence (i don't).

Label your tubes, people. Our future selves will thank us 🙏

But are you excited for our pub quiz yet?👀

We're very much looking forward to seeing you there!🥰

Parts of our team tried marine biology....🌊

Result: We can engineer E. coli but we can’t tell coral from algae🌱

Shout to the professors who saved us from calling everything “sea rock” 🙏

Note to self: bring field guide next time.
