Giant Jamboree demo
September 24 - 28 -- Hynes Convention Center -- Boston, Ma
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.
