MORE ABOUT MARTHA:

Martha Carlin is a citizen scientist, systems thinker, and the founder of BioCollective, a microbiome company at the frontier of our understanding of gut health, the microbiome, and disease, and BiotiQuest, a company delivering quality probiotics.

When her husband John was diagnosed with Parkinson's in 2002, Martha dove into the existing research to find a way to help him. When she came across a newly discovered research showing a link between gut bacteria and two phenotypes of Parkinson's she quit her lucrative job in New York as a business turnaround expert and dove into how to turn around the human body  - and particularly our gut health and microbiome - to create healing and health.

Her background in systems thinking has sparked collaborations across the scientific spectrum including neuroscience to engineering to infectious disease - and has created out-of-the-box thinking to help bring new perspectives to disease, our gut microbiome, and health.
