<p>As the iGEM Bielefeld-CeBiTec team, our project aimed to develop a gene therapy for cystic fibrosis (CF) with a human-centered approach.
From the beginning, we engaged extensively with CF patients, clinicians, regulatory bodies, and researchers to ensure that our solution
addressed real-world needs. We established continuous feedback loops to refine and evolve our project at every stage, incorporating insights
from diverse stakeholders to create a responsible, impactful, and ethically sound therapy. Our mission was not just to develop a technical
solution but to create one that aligns with societal values and patient expectations. </p>
<p>Our integrated Human Practices approach was not just an addition to our project—it was the foundation on which every decision was built. By actively
engaging with CF patients, healthcare professionals, and regulatory experts, we ensured that their feedback directly shaped our
project, from design to implementation. Our patient-centered, globally focused approach not only addresses disparities in CF treatment but also sets
a new standard for accessibility and ethical reflection. We extensively documented our methodologies, including CF cell culture protocols and stakeholder
engagement processes, to empower future teams to build upon our success. Our thoughtful integration of diverse stakeholder insights, combined with expert
guidance in regulatory compliance, nanoparticle research, and gene therapy, ensures that our project is responsible, scientifically sound, and globally
impactful. </p>
