Autistic kids’ microbiomes differ from siblings’, with a bigger gap to kids outside affected families.
Stress impacts all in the home.
Using family portraits, her pipeline reveals unique microbial shifts, advancing autism research.

Dr. Sabine Hazan, a seasoned clinical trial expert, is leading efforts at ProgenaBiome to collect stool samples for groundbreaking research on glioblastoma, Alzheimer’s, and Parkinson’s. She emphasizes the urgent need for this work, particularly for kids with glioblastoma—a major issue in the U.S.—and for adults battling neurodegenerative diseases.

'We’re trying to help those who’ve exhausted all options,' she says. Interested patients can contact [email protected] to join the database and potentially participate in future studies. However, Dr. Hazan notes that advancing this research requires significant funding and regulatory support.
