Measurement Committee
Many members of the iGEM community have expertise related to measurement. The Measurement Committee members work directly with the iGEM foundation to develop its measurement practices efforts including developing community protocols, running the interlab study, and providing information and resources. Measurement committee members can also provide additional guidance and have agreed to be contacted by teams seeking assistance on specific measurement-related aspects of their projects.
