Full Day Added to the Giant Jamboree!

With 340 teams this year, the iGEM Competition is bigger than ever! Due to the growing interest, we are excited to announce that the 2018 Giant Jamboree will be extended by one day to accommodate so many amazing teams. Thursday, October 25 will now begin with the Opening Ceremony, followed by team presentations and posters. This new schedule will have three full days of presentations, poster sessions, and workshops, so that everyone can make the most of their Jamboree experience.

Important Changes and Information

• Wednesday, October 24: Registration Opens (starting at 4pm)
• Wednesday, October 24: Audio / Visual Check for teams (details below)
• Thursday, October 25: Opening Ceremony followed by Presentations, Poster Sessions, Workshops, and Special Events
• ​The Giant Jamboree Registration fee will remain the same

Audio / Visual Check

Due to the change of schedule, we cannot offer our teams full practice sessions this year. Instead, we will give teams time to check their audio / visual setup for their presentation on Wednesday afternoon and evening. Additional information for the audio / visual check will be announced later this season, so stay tuned to our Newsletters and the 2018 Main Page for more details!

If you have any questions or concerns about this change, please email us at hq [AT] igem [DOT] org.
