iGEM 2014 Measurement Interlab Study

Introduction

All iGEM teams are invited and encouraged to participate in the first international inter-lab measurement study in synthetic biology. We’re hoping this study will get you excited for iGEM and help prepare you for the summer!

Please note: All Measurement Track teams are required to participate in the inter-lab study.

The goal of the inter-lab study is to obtain fluorescence data for three specific genetic devices expressing GFP from iGEM teams around the world. Can you measure fluorescence somewhere in your lab? Then this is the perfect study for you! Even if your lab or the organisms you work with mean that you can’t measure GFP from the specific devices, we want every team to be able to participate: email measurement@igem.org and we will work out an alternative.

All teams who participate in the inter-lab study will be acknowledged at the Giant Jamboree with a special award!

For any questions, contact measurement@igem.org.
