Pre-Jamboree
Jamboree registration
Registration for the iGEM 2008 Jamboree is due on September 17. After that, the fees increase $50. Everyone attending the Jamboree must register. Head to the registration page find out more details about how to register.
Documentation
According to the iGEM requirements, each iGEM team's project should be documented on the iGEM 2008 wiki site with detail enough to replicate it independently. Additional presentational information about the team - their story, the rationale for the project, failures, successes, future work, etc. - is highly encouraged. Remember that these wiki pages will be the main source of inspiration for future teams, and having good documentation on them and in the part description in the registry increases the likelihood of more teams building on your project and your parts. What is considered proper documentation is decided by the judging committee and you can find details about proper documentation at the Judging page.
iGEM requirements also state that all teams must properly document their parts on the [http://partsregistry.org Registry]. The judging committee also decides what is considered proper part documentation. See the Judging page for details. Remember, the success of not just iGEM, but all of synthetic biology, depends on the development of well-characterized, reliable, standardized biological parts that have been designed to be simple to use and understand.
DNA submissions
**Details for iGEM 2008 DNA submissions are still being finalized. Please check back for more up to date details.**
iGEM teams are expected to submit their parts to the [http://partsregistry.org Registry of Standard Biological Parts]. In the past, teams have been asked to submit all parts that they made over the summer. For iGEM 2008, however, this may not be the case. Check back for more details on submitting your parts.
The process for submitting DNA to the Registry will be similar to last year. Please read the DNA submission requirements to familiarize yourself with the process.
Poster requirements
Each registered iGEM team is allowed to bring one poster to the Jamboree. The poster must be no larger than 48 inches by 48 inches (1.22m x 1.22m).
The judging committee will specify details on how the posters will be judged on Judging page. Keep in mind that the poster must be able to convey your team's project fully. It should be able to be judged without any external information or input from team members.
iGEM HQ will be asking for a copy of your poster in pdf format for our files. Please watch out for more information on how/when to submit your digital poster copy.
Presentation requirements
Each registered iGEM team is to make a 20-minute presentation, followed by 5 minutes of questions/answer session.
iGEM HQ will also be asking for a copy of your presentation in pdf format for our files. Please watch out for more information on how/when to submit your digital poster copy.
