From Prehistory to Precision: Using the Neanderthal Oral Microbiome to Develop Oral Microbiome Transplantation

This event is part of UNCG’s Biology department seminars.

Did you know that over 90% of Americans will develop dental decay in their lifetime, and over 80% of American adults will suffer from periodontal disease?

Presented by Dr. Laura Weyrich of Penn State, this seminar will cover information on how evolutionary relationships between oral microorganisms and health shape the way we understand, prevent, and treat modern oral diseases.

Don’t miss out! Join us in the Sullivan Science Building Room 201. Hosted By Dr. Gwen Robbins Schug.
