The Synthetic Biology Engineering Research Center (SynBERC) is working on a series of videos designed to inspire and enable a next generation of leaders (iGEMers!) on topics of biosafety involving recombinant and synthetic DNA. The video team will be at the World Jamboree and is looking to hear from the iGEM community - team members, mentors, judges and guests - about their experiences with, and views on, biosafety and what happens when we build technologies where existing 'rules' for protecting ourselves, others and the environment may not perfectly apply. Help us pave the way for future generations of iGEMers to do even better when it comes to safety. To take part in the video, please contact |

The Rathenau Instituut made a video of an event they hosted the evening before the Europe Regional Jamboree this year! Meeting of Young Minds gave future synthetic biologists and future politicians an opportunity to discuss their thoughts on this growing scientific field. Click for the video of highlights! |

"Team uOttawa has posted a game called Gears of Evolution. It was designed as a fun educational tool to inform high school students and those with a general interest in the sciences about synthetic biology. We also plan to port the game to the iPhone shortly and possibly incorporate a scoring system based on time. Please give us feedback on what you think of the game!" |
|
"Team SYSU-China has made a video to illustrate their project. Funny and easy-to-understand, the video will impress you with their fancy idea here." |
|
"Team SYSU-China has designed an iPhone app called SynBio Intro. It was designed to provide an all-in-one experience of modern biotechnology from explaining “what is DNA” to building an organism on your own. With easy language and friendly UI, you will get a joyful but deep impression on how synthetic biology works and change our lives. The free app is available on the App Store here." - Team SYSU-China |

"What is the real impact of iGEM on its participants and on the field of synthetic biology as a whole? This short questionnaire has been developed by this year's Cambridge iGEM team in order to answer this very question. If you first participated in iGEM as a student team member, then we would really appreciate it if you could take a moment to complete this questionnaire and contribute to our research...The survey should only take you about 7-8 minutes to complete." - Team Cambridge |

"The Lazy Scientist is a translation tool aimed to assist synthetic biologists. The app has a number of functions including DNA to amino acid translation, back translation, reverse, complement and reverse complement. The app also contains a genetic codon lookup table allowing all corresponding codons for an amino acid to be looked up. The app is available for free in both the iPhone App Store and the Android Market." - Team Dundee |
