iGEM extends into high schools beginning in 2011.

We are pleased to announce the formation of the iGEM High School Division. High school students have different schedules from collegiate teams. The iGEM High School Division is a way for high school students to experience iGEM and synthetic biology based on parts in a way that addresses their different schedules and needs. To find out more about the iGEM High School Division and the 2011 competition, see the High School Division page.
