"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.
<H5 id="What was our strategy?" text="What is our strategy?"/>
<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>To support our research project and raise funds for our iGEM team at Bielefeld University, we decided to organize a waffle sale in the main hall of the university. This initiative was aimed at raising awareness about our project and collecting funds for our research into cystic fibrosis. </p>
<p>The sale took place in cystic fibrosis awareness month May in the Great Hall of our University. As people passed by, we engaged them by introducing our research group and explaining our project’s objectives. We shared information about cystic fibrosis and why we are raising money. Our goal was to not only just to sell waffles, but also to educate the university community about our research and its’ potential impact. The response has been overwhelmingly positive. Many were genuinely interested in our work and asked for more details about our research and the goals of our project. This enthusiasm strengthened our commitment to the project and highlighted the importance of community involvement in scientific research. </p>
<p>The waffle sale was a great success, both in terms of raising funds and increasing awareness about our work within the university. It was a collaborative effort that brought our team closer together and demonstrated the power of community support in advancing scientific research. </p>

<p> While mentioned medications have improved the quality of life for numerous CF patients, they only manage symptoms rather than cure the disease. Moreover, most of them are expensive and not world-wide accessible. Our research is focused on the development of a gene therapy that targets the underlying cause of CF by correcting the defective CFTR gene. PreCyse aims to halt disease progression and reduce the treatment burden for patients."</p>
