Women AND their Microbes

Over Women AND their Microbes

Women & their Microbes (WtM) is a non-profit organization, established in 2015, that works to promote knowledge about the essential role of microbes in women’s health and to ensure better understanding of this knowledge by medical professionals, scientists and the public. Hereto, we organize the WtM Conference, offering an unique knowledge platform in the form of an annual scientific conference for academics, clinicians and industry to discuss cutting-edge research of female-related microbial conditions. This event is not solely about discussing knowledge, but also about creating multidisciplinary collaborations to integrate microbial management principles and amplifying its societal impact by creating initiatives to emphasize the importance of microbes for women’s health. Ultimately, we envision to help all women achieve the best possible health through microbial management throughout their life, starting with birth, moving through puberty up until menopause and beyond. Since 2018, WtM launched several new initiatives to enhance awareness and action on the female microbiomes and their impact on our health.

Therefore, our vision is "A healthy woman, a healthy baby, a healthy generation."​

Women have arguably the largest impact on global health because of their role in reproduction and childbearing. To be able to positively affect the health of a mother by default ensures greater health potential for her children. Scientific research continues to highlight the importance of microbes in a number of areas of human health. Perhaps a more important and necessary outcome of these pieces of knowledge are developments that have and will enable the scientific and medical communities to understand and harness the potential of microbes to affect health.

- Every mother is entitled to a healthy pregnancy. - Every baby has the right to a healthy microbial inheritance. - Every child deserves healthy microbial and physical development. - Every person is worthy of healthy aging.
