Washington iGEM is an undergraduate-led synthetic biology team based at UW. As an interdisciplinary group with students from all sorts of majors. We represent UW in an international synthetic biology competition held each fall. This year, we will be embarking on an environment/conservation related project(likely related to salmon conservation) although members will have significant input on the project design process. The application deadline has been extended to 02/08/23. It's quick to fill out :)
We are especially looking for people interested in our Human Practices team which focuses on the sociology, history and policy/governance issues that may impact our project.
We are looking for students who are interested in unique leadership, research, outreach, and business opportunities. While we primarily focus on synthetic biology, we need students interested in environmental and social science, business, computer science, and graphic design as our project is multidisciplinary.
If anyone has questions, they can contact us at uwigem@uw.edu. More information is on our website: http://students.washington.edu/uwigem/#/
