in three parallel sub-projects. At this stage, our team will not attempt to create an

+
endosymbiont, but instead investigate the mechanisms in free-living cells in a bottom-up
+
 
+
approach.
+
 
+
We envision that artificial endosymbiosis could be applied in a broad range of fields,
+
 
+
including agriculture, medicine and production of valuable compounds. A deeper
+
 
+
understanding of the relationships intertwining endosymbionts and their hosts could, for
+
 
+
example, unravel new knowledge applicable for the treatment of mitochondrial diseases or
+
 
+
develop humanized antibodies, while a living compartment able to fix nitrogen from air
+
 
+
could decrease the use of fertilizers in agricultural production.</p>

<h5>What should this page contain?</h5>
+
<ul>
+
<li> A clear and concise description of your project.</li>
+
<li>A detailed explanation of why your team chose to work on this particular project.</li>
+
<li>References and sources to document your research.</li>

<h5>Advice on writing your Project Description</h5>
+
 
+
<p>
+
We encourage you to put up a lot of information and content on your wiki, but we also encourage you to include summaries as much as possible. If you think of the sections in your project description as the sections in a publication, you should try to be consist, accurate and unambiguous in your achievements.
+
</p>
+
 
+
<p>
+
Judges like to read your wiki and know exactly what you have achieved. This is how you should think about these sections; from the point of view of the judge evaluating you at the end of the year.

+
 
+
<h5>References</h5>
+
<p>iGEM teams are encouraged to record references you use during the course of your research. They should be posted somewhere on your wiki so that judges and other visitors can see how you thought about your project and what works inspired you.</p>
