This thought-provoking meeting will feature expert presentations on research and clinical trial applications of oral, skin, infant and gut microbiomes. Understanding the complexities of the microbiome are critical for understanding human health. Our speakers will also discuss the challenges faced in clinical trial design, such as effective sampling, subject selection, and managing data variability. They will explore advanced analysis tools that can help answer complex research questions and translate findings into practical clinical applications, such as personalized therapies, preventive strategies or consumer products. This event is an excellent opportunity for scientists and industry experts to engage in meaningful discussions, exchange knowledge, and stay at the forefront of the opportunities and challenges that exist with microbiome research in clinical trials.

Human microbiome specialist Eline Klaassens joined BaseClear to use her expertise as Product Manager Human Health. “I’ve always had a strong interest in sustainability and human health. Many people have health problems related to gut dysbiosis. Through my studies, I’ve learnt a lot about the gut microbiome and I’d like to use my knowledge to improve people’s wellbeing through applications developed with microbial genomics,” she comments. Eline advises clients about genomics analyses for expert projects for clinical trials and the food industry. “As a human microbiome expert, customers value my contribution to interpretation of the analyses to support their projects. I make an important contribution to the success of their research due to my specialised academic background,” she notes.
