Martha Carlin discusses her Company's research in the Parkinson's Microbiome, emerging research in gut health and constipation as an early indicator of Parkinson's, and the foundational science behind BiotiQuest's Sugar Shift formula. LISTEN TO THE PODCAST
A Citizen Scientist Makes Her Mark in Microbiome Research

The BioCollective, a company that transforms whole stool samples into microbial metadata, is developing the US’s first national microbiome reference material. READ THE FULL ARTICLE
– MARTHA CARLIN, Citizen Scientist & founder of The BioCollective
My first discovery as a Citizen Scientist was that our approach to science and medicine is often disjointed, disconnected and dysfunctional. We know the body's systems are inextricably intertwined, but we often fail to examine the interconnected whole. Clearly, we need a new research paradigm to incorporate the body’s complexity. The BioCollective was created to explore the Parkinson's gut-brain connection in an effort to help those with PD thrive. Join our quest and become a member of our collective effort.
I was an invited to speak at the White House National Microbiome Initiative as a citizen scientist.
This is my story, my quest to solve Parkinson's by identifying patterns in health, disease, and the microbiome.
I am a systems turn around expert, so I thought, why can't I turn Parkinson's around too.
