| Project Title: | Armpit Biodiversity Metabolites and Odors |
| Project Type: | Metabolome Evaluation |
| Project Summary: | Diverse communities of microscopic organisms (microbiota) live on the skin, and their collective genomes are referred to as the skin microbiome. The skin microbiota aid in the skin’s barrier function and help mature our immune system as well as produce odor by metabolizing sweat and other secretions produced by our bodies. Only now with the advancement of high throughput sequencing technologies has it become possible to sample the diversity of the microbiota that inhabits the outer surface of the body. This project will sample DNA from microbes (single celled organisms) that live on the human skin, investigate microbial gene regulation, skin surface metabolites, microbial odor production, and begin to assess the human perception of pleasantness of these microbial associated odors. |
