Meet Our Science Team
Aiming to bring the latest science to you first.
Dr Tanya Petrossian, PhD
Epigenetics Clinical Lead
She is also pioneering the development of the first non-hormone therapeutic for endometriosis – the number one cause of infertility and disability in women during their reproductive years.
Christopher Collins, MSST, CISSN
