Did you know that your skin is home to trillions of microorganisms working to protect you? In this enlightening episode of the Dermhealth.co Podcast, we sit down with Dr. Rebekka Williams, Head of Operations at Biomiq, to explore the fascinating world of the skin microbiome. Dr. Williams, with a background in immunology and microbiome research, shares her journey into this emerging field, driven by her personal experiences with autoimmune issues.
