4. Deliverables

Every iGEM team is responsible for completing Deliverables #1-6 listed below. These items are used to evaluate your team, in addition to the other medal and award criteria. Failure to complete these deliverables may impact your team’s chances at winning medals and prizes during the Giant Jamboree. Failure to complete Deliverable #6 Safety Forms will result in your team's disqualification from the competition.

Deliverables #1-5 will help your team achieve a Bronze Medal. In particular, Deliverables #1-4 go towards Bronze Medal Criteria #2 and Deliverable #5 goes toward Bronze Medal Criteria #3.

Deliverables #7 and 8 are specific for new parts that your team will design during your project. We encourage all teams to submit their new parts to the Registry of Standard Biological Parts. In particular, Deliverables #7 and #8 are required if you are working towards Silver Medal Criteria #1, working towards Gold Medal Criteria #2, or any of the specific Part Prizes.

Please refer to the 2019 Calendar for details on all deadlines mentioned below.
