Abstract (English)	The CyanoSensor is a novel biosensor panel based on cutting-edge aptamer and CRISPR technology to precisely monitor cyanotoxins in Swiss lakes. We propose to implement the CyanoSensor with cantonal laboratories and as rapid tests available for the public to safeguard Swiss surface water quality.
