Project Abstract

Each iGEM team should submit an abstract of 100-150 words along with your project title (maximum 15 words) by 2 September. This abstract will be printed in the Jamboree program.

Team Roster

Each team should finalize their team roster by 2 September. Please make sure that you include all members who participated over the summer, not only those who will be attending the Jamboree. Based on the rooster we will create participation certificates. More information on the Team rooster is found in the iGEM team Registration Handbook.

Track Selection

The iGEM projects are organized in various categories. Send which final track you would like to select by 2 September. For a more detailed descriptions of the tracks you can look at the judging criteria page.

Safety Questions

All teams are asked to detail how they approached any issues of biological safety associated with their projects. Make sure your wiki discusses the questions from the safety page by 2 September.

Guests

Guests, family, and friends are welcome to come to the Jamboree. Each must register and pay the Jamboree attendance fee before 2 September. There will be registration after this deadline but note that there is a $50 fee increase and space cannot be guaranteed for any online registration not paid in full by this date.
As space is limited in presentation rooms and at the awards ceremony, preference will be given to iGEM team members.
