About Bio-Me
Bio-Me is a pioneering biotechnology company at the forefront of microbiome innovation. The microbiome plays a critical role in health and wellness and represents one of the most promising frontiers in product and therapeutic development. Bio-Me’s cutting-edge Precision Microbiome Profiling (PMP™) technology enables rapid, accurate, and actionable microbiome analysis, transitioning microbiome insights from a complex, costly R&D tool to a scalable, routine solution for product development and clinical applications.
Bio-Me’s PMP™ excels in areas such as women’s health, skin health, nutrition, and therapeutic R&D, where conventional DNA sequencing struggles due to low biomass or human DNA contamination. Trusted by renowned institutions such as MIT, Harvard, and the Karolinska Institute, and adopted by leading companies like Unilever, Kimberly-Clark, and DSM, PMP™ is becoming the gold standard for targeted microbiome analysis in applications where organisms have already been characterized.
If you are excited to help drive the adoption of a transformative technology that is reshaping microbiome research and product development, we invite you to join our team.
