Three Regional Jamborees in one weekend and one Regional Jamboree the following weekend, means a lot of iGEM HQ will be on the road! We will be collecting stories, photos, and feedback - if you see us, give us your thoughts! You can also jot down your thoughts on either the survey or comment card available at the events.

In the meantime, if you send an email to HQ, we thank you for your patience as we get back to you during this busy time.

Wikis will be frozen for Europe teams this Friday October 4 at 11:59PM Boston time! Be sure to also send in your judging forms and complete your part documentation.

See the full Calendar of Events for additional information.

With parts arriving at iGEM HQ we wanted to remind you to check on your submissions: see if your submission has arrived at iGEM HQ, and the status of your samples.

Don't forget that in order for a sample to be accepted by the Registry the part:

• must have its sequence entered into the Registry
• be BioBrick compatible
• and be in pSB1C3

As you continue to work on your wiki, be sure to upload all files (images, videos, etc.) to the 2013.igem.org server, rather than the igem.org server. This preserves your files for the future, and helps prevent accidental file overwrites with previous teams.

Permitted file types include: png, gif, jpg, jpeg, pdf, ppt, txt, zip, mp3, mp4, webm, mov, m, ogg, gb, xls, tif, tiff, and fcs.
