Welcome to the Community Portal

iGEM is growing a highly diverse community. From around the globe, iGEM teams are forming, and may top the 40 mark before the registration deadline. As team members, advisors, and supervisors fill out these teams and begin to participate within the iGEM wiki, we can expect a large number of users to visit this site.

While discussion continues about whether or not iGEM should be standalone from OpenWetWare, we should still consider how to give iGEM it's own identity and life. How can we make this community site relevant?

iGEM Wiki and OpenWetWare

  • Ahessel 12:19, 28 Feb 2006 (EST): The iGEM wiki is going to be a central destination for iGEM teams, but does it need to be outside of the larger and more active OpenWetWare? I'm new to the iGEM team and MIT, so I need to better understand the issues surrounding this decision.


Wish List

Need or want something? It's all in your head until you share it here.

  • Logo for iGEM wiki - how do I make the default away?
  • Logo for iGEM 2006
  • Brochures, posters, other swag
  • Poster templates for schools to advertise for iGEM team members

Fun

Don't forget, the iGEM experience is meant to fun as well as educational.
