About

The Giant Jamboree is iGEM collegiate division’s culminating event that showcases research in synthetic biology which spans all disciplines, backgrounds and interests. The accomplishments of these university students are impressive and lead to important advancements in medicine, energy, software, the environment, and more.
With 15 tracks available, there is something for everyone!.

The iGEM competition encourages university student researchers to work in teams and solve real-world challenges by building genetically engineered biological systems with standard, interchangeable parts called BioBricks from the Registry of Standard Biological Parts. Each team manages their own projects, advocates for their research, and secures funding. Teams are also challenged to actively consider and address the safety, security and environmental implications of their work.
