Microbiome Research

My name is Meg, I'm an MIT-trained engineer and I work with a team of researchers and scientists based in Cambridge, MA, who study skin ecology (the billions of microorganisms that naturally live on and protect our skin) and how modern lifestyles and hygiene practices can unintentionally disrupt it.

Some of our work includes eczema treatments. More recently, we’re investigating malodor and the relationship with the skin’s microbial balance. We’re looking for participants to take a research survey to help us understand current habits, concerns, and what “better” could look like, so we can focus our ingredient research where it matters most.

If you’ve ever felt frustrated by deodorant options, we’d love to hear from you.

Take the survey here.
