About

The Cervin Group aims to improve outcomes for patients who suffer from debilitating chronic sinus and ear infections. A primary focus of the lab is to gather new knowledge on the microbiome of the sinus, ear, nose and throat during health and to understand how the biome differs in patients with chronic sinus and ear infections. The Cervin Group is also working to develop microbiome therapies that will reduce problematic infections in the sinus and ears.
