GIANT JAMBOREE
This year, everyone advances to Boston. Instead of having Regional Jamborees events we will have one single event. With over 200 teams and 2500 participants! Come join the fun and share in the excitement as teams from all over thw world present their synthetic biology projects. 2014 is iGEM's 10 year anniversary and we look forward to celebrating with our teams at the largest gathering of synthetic biology worldwide.
iGEM Foundation
The International Genetically Engineered Machine (iGEM) Foundation is dedicated to education and competition, advancement of synthetic biology, and the development of open community and collaboration. In 2012, iGEM spun out of MIT and became an independent nonprofit organization located in Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA. The iGEM Foundation fosters scientific research and education through organizing and operating the iGEM Competition, the premier student synthetic biology competition.
It also fosters scientific research and education by establishing and operating the Registry of Standard Biological Parts, a community collection of biological components. The organization promotes the advancement of science and education by developing an open community of students and practitioners in schools, laboratories, research institutes, and industry. The iGEM community has a long history of involving students and the public in the development of the new field of synthetic biology.
