Public engagement

Over the last few years, we have seen teams produce some truly outstanding work in the areas of education and public engagement. Innovative educational tools and public engagement activities have the ability to discuss the science behind synthetic biology, spark new scientific curiosity and establish a public dialogue about synthetic biology from voices/views outside the lab. To compete for the Best Education and Public Engagement prize, please describe your work on this page and also fill out the description on the judging form.

Learn more... hopefully have links to next pages here

-Each team must clearly attribute work done by the student team members on this page. The team must distinguish work done by the students from work done by others, including the host labs, advisors, instructors, and individuals not on the team roster. </br>
-This is a bronze medal requirement. Please see the Medals requirements page for more details.</br>
-Why is this page needed?</br>
-The Attribution requirement helps the judges know what you did yourselves and what you had help with. We don't mind if you get help with difficult or complex techniques, but you must report what work your team did and what work was done by others.</br>
-For example, you might choose to work with an animal model during your project. Working with animals requires getting a license and applying far in advance to conduct certain experiments in many countries. This is difficult to achieve during the course of a summer, but much easier if you can work with a postdoc or PI who has the right licenses.</br>
-What should this page have?</br>
-General Support</br>
-Project support and advice</br>
-Fundraising help and advice</br>
-Lab support</br>
-Difficult technique support</br>
-Project advisor support</br>
-Wiki support</br>
-Presentation coaching</br>
-Human Practices support</br>
-Thanks and acknowledgements for all other people involved in helping make a successful iGEM team</br>
-</br>Can we base our project on a previous one?</br>
-Yes! You can have a project based on a previous team, or based on someone else's idea, as long as you state this fact very clearly and give credit for the original project.</br>
-Tell us if your institution teaches an iGEM or synthetic biology class and when you started your project:</br>
-Does your institution teach an iGEM or synthetic biology course?</br>
-When did you start this course?</br>
-Are the syllabus and course materials freely available online?</br>
-When did you start your brainstorming?</br>
-When did you start in the lab?</br>
-When did you start working on your project?</br>
