Medal Requirements

The three levels of medals, from lowest to highest are Bronze, Silver, and Gold. Requirements for each medal are:

Bronze

Your team must convince the judges you have achieved the following 6 goals:
  1. Register for iGEM, have a great summer, and attend the Giant Jamboree.
  2. Complete the Judging form.
  3. Create a Team Wiki.
  4. Present a poster and a talk at the iGEM Jamboree.
  5. Create a page on your team wiki with clear attribution of each aspect of your project.
  6. Document at least one new standard BioBrick Part or Device central to your project and submit this part to the iGEM Registry.

Silver

In addition to the Bronze Medal requirements, your team must convince the judges you have achieved the following 3 goals:
  1. Experimentally validate that at least one new BioBrick Part or Device of your own design and construction works as expected. This working part must be different to bronze medal criteria #6.
  2. Submit this new part to the iGEM Parts Registry.
  3. Demonstrate how your team has identified, investigated and addressed one or more of these issues (ethics, sustainability, social justice, safety, security, and intellectual property rights) in the context of your project. Your activity could center around education, public engagement, public policy issues, public perception or other activities.

Gold

In addition to the Bronze and Silver Medal requirements, your team must convince the judges you have achieved at least two of the following goals:
  1. Expand on your silver medal activity by demonstrating how you have integrated the investigated issues into the design and/or execution of your project OR demonstrate an innovative human practices activity that relates to your project (this typically involves educational, public engagement, and/or public perception activities.
  2. Convince the judges you have helped any registered iGEM team from a high-school, different track, another university, or institution in a significant way by, for example, mentoring a new team, characterizing a part, debugging a construct, modeling/simulating their system or helping validate a software/hardware solution to a synbio problem.
  3. Improve the function OR characterization of a previously existing BioBrick Part or Device and enter this information in the Registry. This part must not come from your 2015 part range.
  4. Demonstrate a functional prototype of your project. Your prototype can derive from a previous project (that was not demonstrated to work) by your team or by another team. Show this system working under real-world conditions (biological materials may not be taken outside the lab).
