• Giant Jamboree attendance fees: attendance fees for the Giant Jamboree in Boston are $695 per attendee.

Responsible Conduct:

All participants must act responsibly and uphold the values of iGEM, both inside and outside the lab. (See the Responsible Conduct page for more details.)

• Be intellectually honest. Describe your accomplishments accurately, and do not take credit for the work of others.
• Respect other iGEM participants (including teammates, other teams, judges, and Headquarters staff).
• During the competition, do not release or deploy your project outside of a laboratory.
• Follow all biosafety rules of your institution, and all biosafety laws of your country.
• Do not use Risk Group 3 or 4 organisms, and do not work in Safety Level 3 or 4 laboratories. These high-risk organisms are
  not permitted in iGEM. ?
