Location: Nashville, TN
Lead Researcher: Stacy D. Sherrod, Ph.D.
IRB: This study has been reviewed and approved by the WCG Institutional Review Board
About the Study
Approximately 1 in 10 Americans will experience a skin condition in their lifetime. Unfortunately, current treatments are not always effective in reducing or soothing symptoms of flare-ups.
Researchers at Finally Skincare would like to change that by studying the molecules on the skin’s surface. The molecular content gathered from different individuals will help researchers understand how the skin relates to its overall health, structure, and function. With a better understanding of the skin comes a better understanding of skin conditions and of how to treat them. You could learn more about your skin while helping others understand theirs.
