Companies to help me bring antifungals from yeast to the marketplace. We have a minimal viable product ready for testing in breweries and are looking for commercial partners. Future products are in development for probiotics for womens health and novel topical antifungals.
About
Dr. Rowley’s research interests are centered on the study of how antifungal proteins (called "killer toxins") attack fungal cells. The Rowley lab has already shown the effectiveness of these toxins against the human pathogen Candida glabrata and in mitigating spoilage in craft breweries.
