iGEM AI x SynBio Study

Calling all 2024 iGEM Teams: We invite you to participate in an exciting AI x SynBio study!

  • Instructions
    • Please give answers that reflect your individual work on your iGEM project (rather than on behalf of your team). For example, if someone else on your team is using OpenFold to design proteins, but you have never run the software, do not include it in your answers.
    • Multiple members of a team are encouraged to participate, as we're keen to explore the use of AI across different roles, expertise levels, and stages of a project.
  • Notes & Disclaimers
    • Participating in this study is not a deliverable, medal requirement or other judging-related aspect of the iGEM Competition.
    • Personal/Individual data collection is conducted under iGEM’s Privacy Policy.
    • While aggregated data from this study may be shared publicly for informational or research purposes, individual responses will remain confidential and will not be disclosed outside of iGEM without prior consent.
  • Have questions or issues with the survey? Please contact hq@igem.org.
