 Abstract 

The fight against cancer is not only an issue for adults but also teenagers should be interested in it. For this reason a unique project was started at HBLA Ursprung by some pupils.
They made experiments with their own genes to understand and learn about the background and problems of modern cancer research.
They did not only focus on the scientific aspect but they also wanted to get a better understanding of patients and how they were feeling.
Due to the close cooperation with doctors, scientists, patients and research centers they were able to manage the project.
The pupils proved, that without a big budget and modern laboratory technology it was possible to produce medicine adapted to the needs of the patients and thus avoid dangerous side effects.
