Perspectives of the project

Vulgarisation of the project

We wanted to choose this project because, it is often dificult for women to talk freely about their contraception issues or issues related to the vaginal microbiota. Moreover a lot of personn do not the importance of the vaginal microbiota for a healthy vagina. Throught this project we wanted to open the discussion around this issues through synthetic biology but also through art and education.

New applications in medecine

While a great deal of recent research has focused on the important of the gut microbiota there is a lack of knowledge and research about the specific requirements of its vaginal counterpart.

A better understanding of the vaginal microbiota could would help us to better understand many diseases and develop new tools and treatments for women.
