Welcome to judging in iGEM in 2015! If you’re new to iGEM, you’re probably working hard on your project, trying to make sense of all the requirements, medal criteria, part submission guidelines and other facets of iGEM so that you can present a great project at the Jamboree later this year.

Requirements to participate in iGEM in 2015

Before evaluation, you should familiarize yourselves with the requirements for iGEM this year. We have 9 requirements for track teams. You can see them in more detail on the Requirements page, but in summary here are our requirements:

  1. Team Composition
  2. Team Structure
  3. Registration and Other Fees
  4. Project Documentation
  5. Part Submission
  6. Attribution
  7. Safety
  8. Project Presentation
  9. Positive Contribution

We also have separate requirements for new track teams, as the scope of work is different for these teams. Please see the requirements page for more details and the Calendar of Events page for all the deadlines.

Judging Committee

  • Peter Carr, Director of Judging

Important Information

  • Judging Forms

    Teams will be required to submit a judging form that outlines their accomplishments according to the Judging Criteria. Details on where/how/when to fill out this form will be provided when they are available.

  • Wiki and Parts.igem.org freeze

    Experienced teams will be familiar with the wiki freeze, the time in the iGEM calendar when we disable editing to allow judges to work without changes. This date will now be two weeks before the Jamboree and for the first time, we will freeze the parts Registry.

  • Part Characterization, Measurement and Improvement

    This year, we’re changing the medal requirements for characterizing, measuring and improving a part. We’re introducing a contribution system, instead of the experience page, that you can read more about on our page.
