*We ask that each team prepare a short 15-20 minute presentation to introduce their iGEM summer goals to the other teams. Teams should focus on presenting their project idea(s), with a heavier focus on the background and experimental plan. We recommend that teams outline major experimental goals and important methods that they may utilize during the summer. Additionally, we suggest that they discuss any preliminary thoughts on Policy & Practices or collaborations. Please let me know if you have additional suggestions to include here.

**We will have students form small groups and network with each other through facilitated discussion. Here, they can further discuss avenues for experimental and policy & practices collaborations.
