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.

Location

Copenhagen

Copenhagen, one of the largest cities in northern Europe, is also one of Europe's busiest hubs. The city's location has throughout centuries in an almost natural way created commercial routes to far and near.

Today's Copenhagen is very easy to reach by air, sea or land. Copenhagen Airport, Kastrup, (airport code CPH) is a major Northern European air hub with direct flights to most larger European cities as well as transatlantic and other far away destinations.

Over the waters of the Sound The Øresund Bridge, connecting Copenhagen and Malmö in Sweden, has made it very easy to cross the sound by car or train which runs around the clock. Copenhagen also has daily trains to Stockholm, the capital of Sweden, and with Oslo, the capital of Norway, as well as to many other major cities in the rest of Europe.
