About Our Team

Motivated by the lack of outlets for students to explore their passions in biological research, including pre-medicinal studies, students from Montgomery High School created their own iGEM team. Many students are under the impression that science is solely based on engineering fields such as electrical and mechanical building. We strive to strike down these preconceived notions, allowing students to further their interests in the field of scientific research. This program at our school facilitates the process of creating the next generation of doctors, biomedical engineers and innovators in science. With the introduction of iGEM into Montgomery's extracurricular community, the possibility of achieving these goals is greatly increased.
