experimental and computational challenges. For instance, while the biotechnologists and molecular biologists focus on designing and conducting lab experiments, the bioinformaticians contribute crucial insights for data analysis and genome sequencing. The inclusion of a media production expert adds another layer to the team’s capabilities, ensuring that science communication and
project documentation are handled professionally, which is particularly important for presenting their work at conferences and competitions.
The multidisciplinary structure of this team evolved naturally as they identified the project’s needs and recruited members who could fill specific roles. Over time, this multidisciplinary structure has continued to develop as the team’s project evolved. Roles became more defined as team members took on specific responsibilities, whether it was refining prime editing systems or crafting
- communication strategies for iGEM. The range of experience across the team, from younger students like Vincent Carl Stöckl in the early stages of their academic careers to more advanced students in later semesters, allows for a blend of fresh perspectives and seasoned expertise. This balance helps ensure both the immediate success of the project and the continuity of its progress in the future.

summary: [<p>During our initial discussions about project ideas, the team explored several innovative concepts before honing in on <strong>cystic fibrosis</strong>. Each project presented unique scientific challenges and potential impacts.</p>,
<p>One idea involved the development of <strong>magnetic microswimmers</strong> designed for targeted cancer therapy, particularly for ovarian cancer. The proposal aimed to overcome the limitations of traditional treatments, such as radiotherapy and cisplatin, which often damage healthy cells and result in numerous side effects. The microswimmers would be biodegradable algae-based vehicles, magnetically guided to deliver drugs directly to cancerous cells while minimizing damage to surrounding tissue. This approach offered a novel, non-invasive targeting mechanism, leveraging the potential of magnetic fields to direct the swimmers precisely to the affected areas.</p>,
- <p>Another compelling project was focused on <strong>Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD)</strong>. This genetic disorder leads to muscle degeneration as muscle tissue is gradually replaced by fibrotic tissue. The team proposed several treatment approaches, including exon skipping and gene therapy using viral vectors. Key strategies included enhancing Cas protein efficiency through engineering, using liposomal vectors for gene delivery, and combining CRISPR technology with integrase fusion proteins. The team also discussed previous iGEM projects that had explored similar methodologies, emphasizing the need for specificity and efficacy in delivering therapeutic genes.</p>,

<p>We also considered a project aimed at preventing <strong>cyanobacteria blooms</strong> using peptides or proteins derived from algae. Cyanobacteria can produce harmful toxins that degrade water quality and threaten ecosystems. The proposed approach focused on utilizing natural algae to develop mechanisms that inhibit the growth of harmful cyanobacteria without disrupting the ecosystem. This project emphasized conservation and biodiversity while addressing a significant environmental issue linked to the climate crisis.</p>,
<p>Throughout our discussions, we recognized that while each project had merit, the <strong>cystic fibrosis</strong> initiative offered the most promise for a targeted approach to a well-defined problem. CF, affecting a substantial number of individuals, provided a clear opportunity for meaningful impact through gene therapy. The insights gained from our examination of other projects informed our approach to CF, allowing us to integrate knowledge from diverse fields and methodologies, ultimately shaping a comprehensive and innovative project direction.</p>
