You are provided with this team page template with which to start the iGEM season.  You may choose to personalize it to fit your team but keep the same "look." Or you may choose to take your team wiki to a different level and design your own wiki with lots of pirate imagery.  You can find some examples <a href="https://2008.igem.org/Help:Template/Examples">HERE</a>.

The Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology University is one of Australia’s leading educational institutions, producing some of Australia’s most employable graduates.

A leading possibility is the creation of a biofilter inspired by the examples of the the Cambridge 2009 biosensor project. The search is on to find which pollutant and which strain/ strains/ species of organisms can be used.
