| What is iGEM?
iGEM is an international competition hosted by the MIT in Boston, USA, for undergraduate students
of disciplines related to molecular biology. iGEM stands for International Genetically Engineered
Machine competition. One the one hand, it targets to combine aspects of education and social
collaboration among undergraduate students, on the other hand, it provides a library for
standardized and interchangeable parts which can be used in living systems, particularly
in model organisms like E. coli. Student groups from all over the world will receive a
requested kit of biological parts, also called "biobricks", and work over the summer on
an individual research project. Every year, the "Registry of Standard Biological Parts"
is upgraded with further biobricks by the participating iGEM teams. These biobricks will
be accessible to the iGEM community in the following years in order to use these parts for
their own projects. Biobrick SystemUnder process... Part RegistryUnder process... ↑ Return to top
