"Der Teuto ruft!" is an outreach event located all over the city of Bielefeld where various local companies and institutions engage with the public to inform them about their work. Since we wanted to raise awareness for cystic fibrosis and present our approach to developing an optimized gene therapy to combat this disease, our participation in the "Der Teuto ruft!" event in Bielefeld was the perfect opportunity to do so.

<p>Our goal was to educate children about the challenges faced by CF patients, especially the ones with lung problems. The knowledge which we gained at the Science Communication Workshop as part of the BFH Meetup was the optimal basis to plan our outreach to the public. We engaged the children with activities like coloring lung images and conducting experiments to experience and understand lung related symptoms.
One such experiment involved creating a lung model from balloons and straws, demonstrating the difficulty patients have in breathing by having the children blow into the straws. Additionally, we set up a tank with a mixture of starch and water to simulate mucus and placed a ball on top. The children tried to blow the ball across the surface, illustrating how hard it is for air to move through mucus compared to water, where the ball moved much more easily.

<p>The glorious history of the iGEM team Bielefeld began in 2010 and marked its debut on the global stage
of synthetic biology. Since then, the teams were composed of over 160 enthusiastic students from various disciplines, including biology, chemistry, and engineering.</p>
<p>Their initial project focused on the development of a biosensor for the measurement of spiciness in food, which resulted in the team being awarded a gold medal at the competition. Following this successful debut, the teams continued to evolve, both in size and expertise.

For our cloning experiments and the development of our prime editing complexes, we have amplified various plasmids in <i>E. coli</i> K-12 strains (DH5α,10-Beta) When working with microbial strains such as <i>E. coli</i> K-12 strains, a it's important to consider potential risks associated with their use, even though they are generally regarded as safe in laboratory settings. All experiments were performed under strict S1 conditions, following all relevant safety protocols. Below you will find an overview of the <i>E. coli</i> K-12 strains for our cloning experiments, submitted by us as a checkin and the specific safety measures:
</p>
<p>
<strong><i>E. coli K-12</i> strains (DH5α,10-Beta):</strong> Although these strains are non-pathogenic and have been modified to minimize the risk of spreading antibiotic resistance, there remains a low risk of horizontal gene transfer, where genetic material could be transferred to other microorganisms, potentially leading to the spread of resistance genes or other traits. If accidentally released into the environment, <i>E. coli</i> K-12 strains could potentially interact with native microbial communities. While they are typically outcompeted in natural environments, there's a remote possibility of ecological disruption, particularly in microenvironments where they could find a niche.While these strains are non-virulent, they still pose a minimal risk to humans, particularly immunocompromised individuals, through accidental ingestion or inhalation in a laboratory setting.

We submitted the yeast strain <i>Pichia pastoris</i> (SMD1163) for the protein expression of Fanzor.
