She does this through her study of the microbiome \u2013 what other scientists and doctors now know drives nearly every avenue of our bodies (think: cognition, aging, metabolism,&amp;nbsp; Alzheimer\u2019s and Parkinson\u2019s). By creating a product that has the efficacy of a drug but safety of a probiotic, Pendulum Therapeutics has become the next generation health company with an entirely new thing \u2013 a medical probiotic. Pendulum is backed by Mayo Clinic, Meritech Capital, Sequoia Capital, Khosla Ventures and True Ventures, to name a few. Colleen's impressive background includes a Ph.D. in Biochemistry and Microbiology from Johns Hopkins University, but she shares that her role as a mother is what ultimately led her to co-found Pendulum Therapeutics. Listen in to hear Colleen\u2019s favorite sports moment (her bit on sports is phenomenal!), to learn what \u201cleaky gut\u201d is and how to fix it, and how to discover if you are aging healthy or not.
