We're the first iGem team from the University of Leeds. Unlike many iGem teams we are small and student-led, although faculty members tend to drop in and offer advice.
The iGem project is an exciting chance for us to fund, design and develop our own piece of synthetic biology. We're also working on scientific outreach programs, we've been working with high school children to explain the wonders of SynBio; alongside taking a few older students into our lab for demonstrations.
We've also been making educational videos to spread the word of SynBio, check them out on our youtube page: https://www.youtube.com/user/igemleeds/videos
