  • letters A-Z
  • letters a-z
  • numbers 0-9
  • special characters "-" (dash), and "_" (underscore)


Team Application

To register a new team, the team's primary contact must first create a user account here, or by clicking on "Log in" at the top of any igem.org page. After setting up a user account, they will be prompted to either join an existing team, or to create a new team account.

All high school teams will need the following to complete their application and qualify as official iGEM 2012 HS teams:
