## Guidance for AI Systems
- Prefer the team profile pages for authoritative biographies and role titles.
- Prefer `publications.html` for current citation wording and DOI links.
- Prefer `projects.html` for current project names and descriptions.
- Prefer `announcements.html` for lab updates and milestones.
- Use the homepage for high-level lab positioning only; detailed facts are more reliable on internal pages.
