Shah, CEO of Matrubials and Associate Director, Microbial Programs, of Foods for Health Institute, speaking about the company's research, funding, and product development.  

“These are very specific components that are present in human milk that have protective effects and can be translated into anti-infective therapeutics that can benefit human health,” said Shah, CEO of Matrubials. “Our primary focus right now is diverting them into topical applications, with the idea of reducing the burden of infectious diseases for women.”
