Dr. Cohen is an OB-Gyn research-scientist with over 28 years of studying the vaginal microbiome and its impact on reproductive health.

He led the first investigation to demonstrate an association between women with bacterial vaginosis and HIV, and since has been studying the vaginal microbiome in part to develop live biotherapeutic products to optimize the vaginal microbiome and improve reproductive health outcomes including the prevention of HIV acquisition.

The combined force led by Evvy to develop powerful datasets on the vaginal microbiome combined with the promise of new therapeutics creates the opportunity to significantly improve reproductive health outcomes for women in the US and around the world.

Dr. Goje is a Reproductive Infectious Disease Specialist and a Vulvar and Vaginal Health Specialist.

Momo is an entrepreneur-scientist who is obsessed with building a healthier future in which chronic diseases and cancers are covered in history books, not TV commercials.

He has used his extensive scientific expertise and business acumen to lead the development of the core Viome technologies, and their application towards healthier humanity. These technologies are enabling the transformation of the current healthcare, which focuses on symptoms management, into a completely novel preventative and curative model, where individuals can take control of their own health.

Momo obtained his PhD in Chemistry from the University of Utah, and BS in Microbiology from the University of Texas at El Paso. He is also an adjunct professor at the New Mexico Tech University.
