Going Beyond the Gut: The Future of Microbiome Therapeutics

December 22, 2019 - 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Overview

The microbiome market is one of the hottest areas for innovation in the life sciences space.  We are seeing an uptick in both research and venture capital dollars going into the microbiome industry—both in humans and plants.  As a result, the global microbiome market is expected to grow from $235.8 million in 2018 to $521.23 million by 2022.

Please join us for a panel discussion led by some of Boston’s most innovative companies in the space to learn about the science behind the microbiome, the utilization of emerging technologies, and various perspectives on the future of the industry.
