the iGEMer's prize

iGEMer's prize

The iGEMer’s prize is a chance for you, the participants, to have a say in which project you consider to be the ‘best’ at this year’s competition. It is organized by iGEMers, for iGEMers.

In order to make your decision as to which team you think has produced the ‘best project’, you will need to have a look at other teams’ wikis on the web. This can help you to decide what presentations and posters you might see at the jamboree to help you choose which team you would like to award this prize to. What is it that you liked about the project? What do you think is particularly important in producing an iGEM project, and how does the team you have chosen demonstrate this?

You will be given a voting ballot and instructions for how to vote in your team box when you check in at Registration.
