“My view is that the microbiome therapeutics sector is at a critical juncture as first-generation donor derived programs move into the clinical and cell bank derived consortia and single strain products move further down clinic translation. To help the sector address these challenges we require a central forum that can focus on the technical aspects of regulatory, CMC and clinical development. This searchlight network has the potential to be that essential forum for the microbiome industry”
Trent Munro, Senior Vice President of Therapeutics, Microba
