About iGEM

The International Genetically Engineered Machine (iGEM) Competition is a high-profile competition for undergraduates worldwide. Participants conduct research in synthetic biology throughout the summer. One purpose of the competition is to develop genes into standard parts and put them into the collection of part registry. By sharing these “Biobricks” through the part registry, different functional biological systems can be achieved. iGEM is a competition filled with innovation, teamwork, collaboration and public outreach.

Team

4 professors, 3 instructors plus 24 undergraduates! We worked as a team for our project! We are from different departments, including Life Sciences, Chemistry, Engineering as well as Computer Science. Want to know more about us? Visit our Team page to see how we enjoy our journey!

Human Practice

In order to promote synthetic biology, we have implemented a number of ways to raise public’s interest towards this field. For instance, we organized talks about synthetic biology at high school and college. We also took part in a university radio programme as well as conducted an online survey. Just click in to know more!
