Better Microbiome Science Starts

With Better Thinking.

I’m R. William DePaolo, PhD, a microbiome scientist, research leader, and advisor with more than two decades of experience across host microbe biology, mucosal immunology, translational research, and scientific program development.

I work with companies, research teams, and health organizations to ask better scientific questions, build stronger research programs, and make better decisions about microbiome science.

Scientific Advisory

I advise microbiome and health companies on complex scientific questions, translational strategy, study design and research direction.

HOW I HELP

Research Programs & Operations

I help organizations build stronger research programs, define scientific priorities, evaluate capabilities, and turn ambitious ideas into executable work.

Evidence, Testing & Translation

I evaluate microbiome evidence, testing platforms, and product science to clarify what the data support and where stronger work is needed.
