iGEM 2010 recruiting is open! The deadline is Tuesday, March 30.

To apply for the 2010 MIT iGEM team, send the following to igem-grads at mit dot edu:

  1. Your resume/CV, which should include relevant coursework and research experience.
  2. A list of any other commitments you've made for the summer.
  3. ~250 words describing why you're generally interested in synthetic biololgy and iGEM.
  4. ~250 words describing a project that you think would be appropriate and exciting for iGEM. This can be somewhat vague or can be more specific. You should look at previous iGEM projects for inspiration and to get a handle on the typical scope. Links to previous years: 2006, 2007, 2008 (abstracts), 2009 (abstracts). You may want to consider writing the project idea in the form of a UROP research proposal.

Please submit your application in PDF format to igem-2010-applications@mit.edu. Final decisions will be made no later than Monday, April 5. If you have questions about the application process, please send email to the same address.
