What Should this Page Contain?


Teams must document their contribution and explain why their effort is a contribution to fellow iGEMers. There is no single definition of what a contribution should be. We invite teams to be creative and generous in the knowledge, data or tools they may provide to the community.

A few examples of contributions are:

  • Creating a new BioBrick part or significantly improving an existing one in the iGEM Registry.
  • Developing software, tools, or resources that can considerably assist future iGEM teams.
  • Sharing optimized protocols, experimental techniques, or methodologies.
  • Any other contributions that provide a clear benefit to future iGEM teams.
