The iGEM Competition is the premiere student competition in Synthetic Biology. Around 300 teams will be participating in 2016 from all around the world, including every inhabited continent.
We, the UNC iGEM 2016 Team, are a group of 10 undergraduates working together on a common research issue. Our main faculty adviser is Shawn Gomez of the UNC-CH and NC State Joint BME Department and our main mentor is Erin Borchardt.
