Beauty & the Bacteria

An Exploration into the World of the Skin Microbiome

In this new educational docuseries, hosted by geneticist Thomas M. Hitchcock, Ph.D, we will take you on a journey inside the world of the skin microbiome.

Through this journey you will appreciate the entangled relationship between our skin and the microbes living on and in it—and how that affects our lives. Featuring special appearances by a number of leading U.S. dermatologists, the series will guide the audience through the basics of what the skin microbiome actually is and why it is critical to the health of our skin.

Microbiome Facility

Crown has recently invested in our microbiology infrastructure by building out the Crown Microbiome Division in the Johnson City research facility. This facility includes a state-of-the-art microbiology lab for research and development, as well as the latest fermentation and harvesting equipment for the scale-up and manufacturing of microbiome-related products.

Education

The topic of the Skin Microbiome has become popular among skincare brands in recent years due to increased consumer interest. Because of this, there is an abundance of information, and too often misinformation, floating around as brands clamor to cash in on the buzz surrounding the topic. To help dispel some of the misinformation, we have produced an educational mini-series that will explore the topic of the skin microbiome.
