Start working on your wiki now and don't wait till NovemberTelling your story clearly and concisely is an important part of your iGEM project. Your wiki should not only be used to document your work, it is your platform to communicate your message to the general public.It takes time to tell us about your work, the importance of the problem you are attempting to
solve, why you have chosen this approach, and all the work that you've done. Give yourself that time by starting to work on your wiki now. It's all about story telling and we look forward to hearing your story.Just One Giant Lab (JoGL) did an in-depth analysis on wiki editing's impact on team performance. Learn more about the impact that wiki editing had on team’s projects by viewing the “waterfall”.
