In this special edition of the JDD podcast, with consideration from La Roche-Posay, host Dr. Adam Friedman is joined by Acne guru Dr. Hilary Baldwin, Director of the Acne Research Center and Associate Professor of Dermatology at SUNY Downstate, to review the cutting edge of cutaneous microbiome research and translational applications. Yes you are covered in bacteria - accept it, own it, and love it. Learn how harmony between the >500 species on our skin keep our barrier and cutaneous immunity in check, and conversely, how dysbiosis can facilitate a broad range of cutaneous pathology.
