iGEM 2014 Community Labs New Track

We are excited to announce that iGEM is establishing a Community Labs track for iGEM 2014! This track will allow Community Labs and established DIYBio groups to participate within iGEM for the first time.

Community Lab track details

Community labs will be able to compete alongside traditional iGEM teams for the same prizes. Teams will be eligible for the Grand Prize, as well as other prizes such as the Best Human Practices, Best Software and Best Part awards.

If you participate in iGEM this season, we will ship you a copy of the 2014 distribution as well as fulfil any part requests for the duration of the competition. You get space on this 2014 wiki to display your project, a presentation slot and poster board at the Giant Jamboree.

Community Lab track requirements

  • Two Principal Investigators. These people are our first point of contact for your team.
  • A legally-recognized company to host the team.
  • More requirements to come soon
  • Community Labs track Committee

    We have a great committee to help coordinate this endeavor.
