DNA distributions for the high school teams are now available! Distribution kit plates will be sent to teams on a rolling basis, as each team is approved.

Remember, high school teams will need by February 29:

• a team account on iGEM
• user accounts for every team member
• consent forms for every team member
• a principal consent form

Next Team Meeting is in Second life. Please make an avatar in Second Life. I will post the address for the meeting. Use the address to tel-port to the location for the meeting. At this meeting we will discuss how we are going to use Second Life for the jamboree. Get your students to develop an avatar. Meeting will be in March, date and time will be announced on this wiki.
