Stay Up to Date with the Community
To help iGEMers connect with each other around the world, we have the Community Bulletin page where iGEMers can submit general community posts about goings-on around the world, and other topics for everyone to see.
We have also created specific Meetups and Collaborations pages, for teams to get in contact with each other about these topics

Please note: One of the most common requests we receive from teams is the ability to easily contact other teams, which usually means people requesting email addresses. This is a challenging request for us since we respect the privacy of our registered iGEM account users and thus don't give out personal information, including email addresses.
