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.

<p>The first iGEM high school team from the state of Texas, the St. Mark’s iGEM Team was established as part of a Biotechnology Initiative begun in September of 2013 by our school’s Biology Club. This Initiative, spurred on by iGEM, revitalized our Club and helped generate significant interest in synthetic biology from the student body, faculty, and school administration. In our first year we achieved regular access to a radiation oncology lab at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, $1500 in funding from the school to cover the registration fee for the iGEM Competition, exlcusive laboratory space at the school, and a more than four-fold increase in membership of the Biology Club to twenty-two members.
 +
<br><br>
 +
Our iGEM Team blends the setup of a traditional club with the highly efficient structure of a professional research laboratory. The Team is divided into four Committees: Fundamental Research, Applied Research, Outreach, and Web Development. This allows us to work more efficiently and cohesively. We have had to lay the foundation of our iGEM Team this year by informing the school community on synthetic biology, seeking financial support, and establishing laboratory resources for our project. But it was our infectious enthusiasm and indefatigable determination for synthetic biology that allowed us to overcome administrative hurdles and a steep learning curve. Through our journey this year, we have proven that a school with limited resources in biotechnology can make significant strides, effectively pioneer investigations in the field, and shown our community the tremendous potential we have in the future.</p>
