Our Crowdfunding Groups
We finally made it! Due to the incredible support the team has received, we were able to raise 660% of our original fundraising goal. We would like to extend our sincere gratitude to the generous supporters of our Catalyzer project, we literally could not have done it without you. This extra funding will allow us to purchase more precise equipment, and ensure that we give our organisms the best possible shot at living up to our plans for them.
Our bacteria can keep growing, and we can keep doing our meaningful work thanks to you. We are learning so much about engineering biology and could not be more excited to start our iGEM summer adventure.
Thank you all for your overwhelming support! We are THRILLED to have surpassed our original goal and are excited to start our experiments soon. We would like to wholeheartedly thank the Ron and Andrea DeFeo foundation for the continuous support, which helps us expand our synthetic biology toolbox by participating in the iGEM Jamboree every year! You have contributed to BIG potential for our small organisms. On behalf of all of us here on the 2018 iGEM team, we want to celebrate our amazing donors. Let’s keep the momentum going with 9 days left!!
Wow! Thanks to generous donors, we’ve reached our $500 goal! We’ve come so far since we started this project, and our progress couldn’t have evolved without your help!
We appreciate all the help we’ve received so far, and are honored to have your support as we move forward. Here are some fun facts about what supplies we now have thanks to your support:
10 Genes!
5 Microcentrifuge tube racks!
20 PCR Primers!
We look forward to keeping you updated on our progress as we try to surpass our fundraising goal and move on with implementing our project ideas!

We need to make DNA, and we need to make a lot of it. With your support, we can amplify DNA a million times in just a couple hours.
Great for all your micro-centrifuge tube-organizing needs. Seriously, someone keeps stealing mine.
It can encode a bright green protein, engender a new cell function, or possibly kill the cell. We have a lot of favorite genes, so every bit helps.
It’s hard to do science without any tools! The more tips we have, the more we can accomplish!
iGEM is all about creating new and exciting bio-machines! To do so, we need to clone and assemble new DNA! This can support the creation of 10 new constructs which can result in hundreds of new functions!
