Competition/Title and Abstract

Title and Abstract

Why is this important?

Your Title and Abstract are also the first items your judges will see when they begin the judging process in November. As a result, these items should be accurate and honestly represent the work your team completed by September 1.

The title and abstract will be included in the Jamboree program booklet, which will be published online and handed out at the Giant Jamboree. The program will include all team projects and abstracts and will be a way to communicate what each team's project is about.

Project titles and abstracts must be submitted by the freeze date to ensure they appear in the program booklet! No extensions will be provided as this is a Freeze Date. Please plan accordingly.

Expectations

Each team should provide ONE project title of up to 15 words and ONE project abstract of up to 150 words. These should accurately reflect the team project and should summarize the work done in a clear, concise paragraph.

Questions can be emailed to hq AT igem DOT org.
