Why iGEM? What kind of backgrounds does it attract
Advantages - freedom to research, inspiring, interdisciplinary
iGEM is unique in the amount of freedom given to undergrads to choose and organise their own research project. Shuna Gould made the point that teams also have to manage publicity and pitching their research to people with differing levels of specialist knowledge - valuable skills which are rarely developed in "normal" summer placement schemes.
Effect on future plans etc
