Revision as of 22:21, 3 February 2017
Note:
Please note that the content on the Judging pages is not finalized - Information will be updated soon.
iGEM Medals
All teams must convince the judges they have achieved each of the medal criteria. Simply ticking a box does not guarantee you will awarded a medal. Medal criteria will be simpler in 2017, but teams will need to meet all the deliverables in section 4 of the 2017 competition requirements page. Please see the Competition Hub for more information.
All teams can earn a medal. Teams can only win one medal in a given iGEM year. Teams must nominate themselves using the Judging Form. Please see our Judging Form info page for more information. See the Calendar for more information on iGEM deadlines.
The three levels of medals, from lowest to highest are Bronze, Silver, and Gold. We do not limit the numbers of each medal. Teams are only competing with themselves to achieve the medal criteria.
Medal | Explanation | Criteria for Standard Tracks | Criteria for Special Tracks |
---|---|---|---|
Bronze | All Criteria must be met | ||
1 | Register and attend | Register for iGEM, have a great summer, and attend the Giant Jamboree. | Register for iGEM, have a great summer, and attend the Giant Jamboree. |
2 | Deliverables | Meet all deliverables on the Competition Deliverables page (section 4). | Meet all deliverables on the Deliverables page (section 4), except those that specifically mention parts. |
3 | Attribution | Create a page on your team wiki with clear attribution of each aspect of your project. This page must clearly designate work done by the students and distinguish it from work done by others, including host labs, advisors, instructors, sponsors, professional website designers, artists, and commercial services. | Create a page on your team wiki with clear attribution of each aspect of your project. This page must clearly designate work done by the students and distinguish it from work done by others, including host labs, advisors, instructors, sponsors, professional website designers, artists, and commercial services. |
4 | Part / Contribution | Participate in the Interlab Measurement Study and/or improve the characterization of an existing BioBrick Part or Device and enter this information on that part's Main Page in the Registry. The part that you are characterizing must NOT be from a 2017 part number range. | Document at least one new substantial contribution to the iGEM community that showcases a project related to BioBricks. This contribution should be central to your project and equivalent in difficulty to making and submitting a BioBrick part. |
Silver | All Criteria must be met | ||
1 | Validated Part / Validated Contribution |
Convince the judges that at least one new BioBrick Part of your own design that is central to your project works as expected. Document the experimental characterization of this part on the Main Page of that Part’s Registry entry. Submit a sample of this new part to the iGEM Parts Registry (following Registry submission guidelines). This working part must be different from the part documented in bronze #4 and gold #2. |
Convince the judges that something you created (art & design, hardware, software, etc.) performs its intended function. Provide thorough documentation of this validation on your team wiki. |
2 | Collaboration | Convince the judges you have significantly worked with any other registered iGEM team in a meaningful way. For example, mentor a team, characterize a part, troubleshoot a project, model/simulate a system or validate a software/hardware solution to a synbio problem, or be the recipient of any of these activities.

3 | Human Practices | Convince the judges you have thought carefully and creatively about whether your work is safe, responsible and good for the world. You could accomplish this through engaging with your local, national and/or international communities or other approaches. Please note that standard surveys will not fulfill this criteria. | Convince the judges you have thought carefully and creatively about whether your work is safe, responsible and good for the world.

Gold | At least two (2) criteria must be met | ||
1 | Integrated Human Practices | Expand on your silver medal activity by demonstrating how you have integrated the investigated issues into the design and/or execution of your project. | Expand on your silver medal activity by demonstrating how you have integrated the investigated issues into the design and/or execution of your project. |
2 | Improve a previous part or project | Improve the function OR characterization of an existing BioBrick Part or Device and enter this information in the Registry. Please see the Registry help page on how to document a contribution to an existing part. This part must NOT be from your 2016 part number range. | Improve the function OR characterization of an existing iGEM project (that your team did not originally create) and display your achievement on your wiki. |
3 | Proof of concept | Demonstrate a functional proof of concept of your project. Your proof of concept must consist of a BioBrick device; a single BioBrick part cannot constitute a proof of concept. (biological materials may not be taken outside the lab). | Demonstrate a functional proof of concept of your project. (biological materials may not be taken outside the lab). |
4 | Demonstrate your work | Show your project working under real-world conditions. To achieve this criterion, you should demonstrate your whole system, or a functional proof of concept working under simulated conditions in the lab (biological materials may not be taken outside the lab). | Bring your prototype or other work to the Giant Jamboree and demonstrate it to iGEMers and judges in your track showcase (biological materials may not be taken outside the lab). |
