Greetings, SuperFriends!

Today, we have a special treat for you. We’re going to talk about poop!

Just kidding.

But actually, not really.

That’s because we have Jessica Richman, the Founder and CEO of a company called uBiome, with us, to discuss the rapidly growing field of the "micro biome."

My guest today has quite impressive credentials, from Stanford and Oxford to Clarendon and Fulbright Scholarships. She’s worked at Google, McKinsey, Lehman brothers, the Grameen bank, and more. She’s spoken at TEDMED, and has been featured in Wired, Scientific American, NPR, Fox news, ABC news, just to name a few.

In this episode, we’ll not only learn why all of this is so important, but also what you can do to promote the health of your own micro biome, the power of citizen science, and much, much more.
