50+ presentations will be given at the 2022 Asia meeting. Over two days you will learn about the latest microbiome discoveries, novel research and development trends, as well as exploring effective business and commercialisation strategies that translate findings into viable products through collaborative partnerships and funding opportunities.
With a focus on the microbiome in health and disease, the meeting moves beyond the gut microbiome to also explore developments in skin microbiome research, women’s health and the oral/respiratory microbiome.
The meeting is co-located with the 5th Probiotics & Prebiotics Congress: Asia. You have full access to this meeting with your delegate pass.
Do you have a paradigm-shifting idea that you would love to present to a roomful of business mentors, legal advisors, potential investors and partners? Then you will love our “pitch your microbiome idea” segment. The chair of the entry panel is Eric Huang, PhD, Chair Professor, National Central University, Taiwan.

Microbiomepost.com provides qualified scientific updates to healthcare professionals and to anyone who wants to know more about the microbiome.
Our mission is to tell the story of the microbiome by reporting the results of research carried out in laboratories all over the world with a journalistic style and a solid scientific basis.
Bacteria have coexisted in our bodies for millions of years. They evolved with us in a sort of “peaceful” symbiosis. They are in the intestine, in the stomach, on the skin, in the lungs and beyond. We host about 100 billion microorganisms and they, in turn, synthesize different essential nutrients for us, take care of our immune system, protect us from their pathogenic “relatives”.
Research in this area began to take its first steps a few years ago and is therefore still in its infancy. The results however are already very interesting and cover nearly all medical disciplines, from gastroenterology to oncology, from dermatology to neuroscience.
According to some, we are living a real epochal turning point which could revolutionize the medical practice of the next decades.
And this is exactly the story we want to tell.
