Student teams are given a kit of biological parts at the beginning of the summer from the Registry of Standard Biological Parts. Working at their own schools over the summer, they use these parts and new parts of their own design to build biological systems and operate them in living cells. more...

PROGRAM

SPECIAL EVENTS

The iGEM 2014 Giant Jamboree will take place at the Hynes Convention Center over the course of 4.5 days. We have over 130,000 square feet and over 30 available rooms available. All of this space affords us the opportunity to have more special events, panels, workshops, etc. than we have ever been able to host before. In addition to the main portion of the Jamboree which is the team presentations and posters as in the past, we are organizing and inviting others to organize additional special events.

The special events we're working on include:

iGEM Startup Showcase

Regional Lounges

Giant Jamboree Concert / Dance Party

AlumniGEM

"Night on the Town"

Networking / Recruiting

Swag Swap

Panel: "Perspectives from iGEM Veterans & Mentors"

Panel: "Perspectives on Funding Opportunities”

Special interest meetings (Biosecurity, biodesign automation, synbio leadership, policy & practices, science museums and science cafes, and more)

Sponsor suites
