Microbiome science to improve women’s health.
Women's health is an area of medicine that has historically been under-researched and under-funded. However, there has been growing recognition of the unmet need for research and treatments in this field. Microbiome research has shown promise in addressing some of these unmet needs. From the vaginal microbiome in reproductive health to the impact of menopause on the skin microbiome, the applications of microbiome science in women’s health are wide reaching and present an opportunity to develop novel therapeutics and diagnostics.
