The Open Division is a new experiment for iGEM 2009. This new category enables participation of other teams that are interested in iGEM but in a limited capacity. The Open Division teams will also pay a registration fee and Jamboree attendance fees. At the iGEM 2009 Jamboree in November, teams will give a flash 5-minute presentation and present a poster. These teams will NOT be eligible for the standard prizes from the iGEM judging committee but might be eligible for a single award specific to non-traditional teams.

Fees for Open Division teams

Team registration fee: $500.00 USD per team

Jamboree attendance fee: $175.00 USD per undergraduate (or high school student); $375.00 USD per graduate student/instructor/other

DNA Distribution

Distribution of DNA to Open Division teams will be determined on a case by case basis. Please contact HQ AT iGEM DOT org once you have been accepted as an Open Division team for more details.

Team Application

Apply to be an Open Division team on the iGEM 2009 Registration page.
