Useful Documents
The following is a collection of documents that offer some background information on the field of synthetic biology and iGEM. These may be of interest to you if you are curious about iGEM or synthetic biology (explore 2011 Wiki for more information), or are considering applying to work on the QGEM team.
BioBrick Standard
The entire iGEM experience hinges on students having the ability to perform genetic modification of cells as easily and expediently as possible. To make this possible, the BioBrick Standard system was devised by the founders of iGEM, and all teams adhere to this system. This document outlines the system and how it works.
iGEM '11 Project List (World Championship)
Included in each project listed is the project title, the institution or university that the team worked at, the division of iGEM that the project was entered in and the project's abstract. If you find any projects of particular interest, you can use this information to find the team's wiki (a page created by the team, which describes their project in considerable detail) on 2010.igem.org.
