First team meeting, our instructors informed us on the competition and how the team is organized. Our first mission is to prepare a presentation for the next week on the following themes:
- Previous subjects. What are the themes explored by iGEM? Give examples of good projects and explain why they won?
- Biobricks? What are they? What’s their advantages? What are the materials send by iGEM? How does the registry work?
- Competition and deadlines. How does the competition works and what are the important deadlines?
Those presentations gave us the opportunity to understand more of the iGEM competition and to get to know each other (since we don’t all come from the same institutions)
