Twist Bioscience and Desktop Genetics Call for CRISPR/Cas9 Project Proposals

CRISPR Design and DNA support available!

Application deadline: July 8, 2016

Twist Bioscience and Desktop Genetics have partnered together to offer CRISPR design and DNA synthesis support for iGEM teams and are calling for proposals.

How have you reimagined gene editing with CRISPR/Cas9? We want to know!

Twist Bioscience and Desktop Genetics are calling for project proposals, and have teamed up for iGEM 2016 to provide precision gene editing tools through expert gRNA design, and highly uniform and accurate DNA synthesis. 5 select iGEM teams will receive access to CRISPR training resources, the DESKGEN design platform, and additional support from Desktop Genetics for genomes currently deployed. Twist Bioscience will synthesize your designs and provide high quality, cloning-ready single guides and oligo pools for your experiment.

Project Proposal and Application


Teams seeking sponsorship from Twist Bioscience and Desktop Genetics may submit a proposal (2 page, 1000 word max) including:

  • 100 word abstract
  • Description of your gene editing project
  • Applications and impact of the research

Please submit your proposal to customersupport@twistbioscience.com by July 8, 2016 (subject: iGEM project proposal)
5 Teams will be notified of their award by July 15 if selected.
