Visit the [[Safety Hub]] to see this year's safety requirements. Here is a timeline:
-
Thank you for participating in iGEM 2014! Every year, we see projects exploring synthetic biology and helping everyone be safer. We want you to be able to work as freely as possible. The safety policies help us keep informed of your work, and help you make sure your team members are safe.
+
* Now: Read the [[Safety Hub]] and learn about safety in iGEM. Ask questions by emailing safety AT igem DOT org.
 +
* From now until the Jamboree: Complete Check-Ins before acquiring and using certain materials in your lab
 +
* From now until the Wiki Freeze: Edit this Safety page to tell us about what you're doing
 +
* June 6: Submit the "About Our Lab" form
 +
* June 30: Submit the Early Draft of the Overall Safety Form
 +
** Let us know by June 15 if you will need an extension on the Early Draft, or your Early Draft will be significantly incomplete.
 +
* ???: Participate in Virtual Open Office Hours to ask questions and discuss safety topics (exact date to be determined)
 +
* August 31: Submit the Final Version of the Overall Safety Form
 +
* October: Wiki freeze (exact date to be determined)
 +
* October 30 - November 3: GIANT JAMBOREE

This year's safety forms are different from last year, so please read them carefully! Visit the [[Safety Hub]] to learn about this year's safety requirements, and to learn about general biosafety topics and how to think about the future implications of your project. The Safety Hub is the central page for everything related to safety in iGEM.

In the section below, there are a few example questions to get you started. This is not the official safety form, and you do not have to answer these questions exactly as written. The purpose of these questions is to make you think creatively about safety.

====Lab Safety for Today====
+
Use this section to tell us about your laboratory. Where is it located? What sort of equipment do you use every day? Have you decorated it for the summer? Take pictures! Show off your space!
-
* What chassis organism will you use? Could it make you sick, if you handled it improperly?
+
-
* As you modify your chassis organism, are you making it a stronger disease germ, a weaker one, or the same strength as before?
+
-
* What training have your team members had on laboratory safety?
+
-
* What might happen if some of your bacteria/yeast/cells escaped into the environment, for example on the bottom of someone's shoe?

====Safety for the Future of Our Project====

* Imagine that your dreams came true, everything worked perfectly, and you accomplished everything you want to do. Imagine that your project became widely used as an industrial tool, a commercial product, a medical device, or in whatever way you desire.
