Ailurus iGEM Sponsorship 2024: Innovate, Experiment, Excel!
Ailurus is excited to sponsor iGEM teams for 2024 competition!
As usual, we are offering a sponsorship package designed to provide valuable resources and support to participating team with our latest technologies, which is PandaPure to accelerate protein engineering and research this year.
Moreover, we designed a special challenge event we'd like to invite all iGEM teams to participate, to bring more fun to your iGEM experiences.
PandaPure Grant
Award 5 iGEM teams up to $2,500 each in PandaPure products, based on project relevance or innovation. The kits are designed to support protein engineering and research.
Key benefits of PandaPure include:
1. Easy expression of a wide range of difficult proteins
2. Significant reduction in the cost and complexity of protein purification
Selected teams can also have a 30-minute meeting with veteran iGEM judges to help refine the projects.
Extended Deadline: August 16th, 2024, 23:59 BST
Expected to announce winners at mid-August, 2024
PandaPure Challenge
All team can request a PandaPure Blind Box, containing plasmids, reagents, and instructions, to solve the property of an arbitrary protein.
Teams who follow the instruction and complete the challenge before iGEM wiki freeze, will get the protein name, and be featured on Ailurus' social media channels. After iGEM, with consents, acquired results will be incorporated into Ailurus' next research article on PandaPure techniques, with team members as co-authors.

Ailurus & iGEM
Why we love to help iGEMers? Because we are iGEMers ourselves.
Ailurus' founders, members, and advisors have been team members, team leaders, instructors, mentors, advisors, judges, board member, and sponsors of iGEM competition.
Ailurus members have won Grand Prize, 1st runner up, 2nd runner up, finalists, many Special Prizes, and even more nominations.
Since 2021, Ailurus have been sponsoring iGEM teams, events, and competition itself.
We were very glad to see that teams we sponsored have won finalists and special prizes at the Jamboree eventually.
More importantly, we helped many iGEM alumni to kick off their startups. Now, those startups have made great progresses, with the sum of their valuation exceeding 100M.
