Getting Started with iGEM
Key steps to begin using the iGEM wiki and Registry
- You will need to set up an account with the Registry of Standard Parts if you have not already done so.
- Also check out the Registry Help and Documentation to begin working with BioBricks.
- Getting started - Introductory tutorial on how to edit iGEM wiki pages. More info here.
- Teach the Teachers Summaries 2006 MIT EU
Lectures and Presentations
Background of iGEM philosophy and programs
- Foundations of Engineered Biology (Drew Endy): high res lowjournal article
- Synthetic Society (Drew Endy): high res low resPDF PowerPoint
- Other Drew Endy videos and presentations
- MIT Teach the Teachers summary (May, 2006)
- Natalie Kuldell's BE.109 MIT course "Laboratory Fundamentals of Biological Engineering."
- MIT OpenCourseWare directory of Biological Engineering classes.
- Synthetic Biology technical reports in MIT's DSpace
Introductory Material
- Abstraction hierarchy and PoPS
- Standard Assembly
- Comic introducing basic ideas of Synthetic Biology, Parts and Devices.
- Drew Endy's article Foundations for engineering biology (published in Nature), explaining motivation and ideas behind synthetic biology.
- Wikipedia article about synthetic biology, with more links
- iGEM 2005 Supplement This document summarizes what happened in 2003 and 2004, gives a background on abstraction and PoPS.
