Issue Date: | Jun-2025 | Abstract: | PanoPOLY is a student-led initiative dedicated to advancing pancreatic cancer treatment, one of the most challenging and deadly cancers. Through the iGEM competition, their team developed a novel dual-targeting nanobody designed to overcome gemcitabine resistance in pancreatic cancer. By combining synthetic biology, innovative protein engineering, and community outreach, They aim to improve patient survival rates and bring new hope to affected families. Their project earned a Gold Medal, ranked among the Top 10 undergraduate teams worldwide, and was nominated for Best Oncology Project and Best New Composite Part at iGEM 2024, recognizing both their scientific and societal impact. | Keywords: | Cancer Biology Synthetic Biology Protein Engineering and Biotechnology Pharmacology and Drug Resistance Translational Medicine and Human Practices |
