I am a drug developer working on identifying novel therapeutics from human skin, oral, and intestinal bacteria.

I love the idea of Manifund - but I think this may not be the best project for it. This proposal needs some review by a biologist. In its current form, I think this is a much less impactful use of money than other things on Manifund.

Curious what those would be. Again, too good to be true, but if we could vaccinate against cavities, that seems like an enormous amount of human misery eliminated for a one time investment.
