11.30 – 13.00 All 5 teams pitch their project (or state-of-play / project ideas – we know you’ll not have got very far yet!) to other teams - 10 minutes pitch and 5 minutes discussion: the notion of these sessions is to provide early feedback from other teams and previous participants as to the project ideas and methods of implementation which have been adopted. The motivation is to act together to maximise the success of “iGEM-UK” at the jamboree and raise the profile of the UK’s synbio work.
