About Dr. Zack Abbott:

Dr. Zack Abbott is the CEO and co-founder of ZBiotics. Zack has a PhD in microbiology & immunology from the University of Michigan and holds a bachelor’s degree from UC Berkeley, where he double-majored in immunology and classical art & archaeology. During his PhD training, Abbott learned how scientists work with microbes. He was amazed to learn that using genetic engineering, microbes could change their behavior or even perform new functions. But Zack had a new idea. He wanted to engineer probiotic microbes to do something useful directly inside the human body. Combining the tools of genetic engineering with the good-for-you microbes already around us, his goal was to create something new: a microbe “trained” to do something that helped people live healthier, happier lives. Zack dove into the research project that would eventually become ZBiotics. He holed up in his lab in Berkeley, California – often sleeping next to his lab bench – and after 12 months emerged with the prototype of the world’s 1st genetically engineered probiotic.
