The video's transcript is also provided in full, with a portion provided below for preview:
"The skin micro-environment varies across the body. But one thing that remains constant is the presence of microorganisms that affect skin health. In a recent study, researchers gathered more than 800 organisms from 3 body sites of 17 individuals. Analyses revealed 30+ bacterial genera and 14+ fungal genera, with the most prevalent being Staphylococcus and Micrococcus bacteria. Further tests showed that the collected microbes had the capacity to break down a variety of compounds. including amino acids, steroids, lipids, and sugars, as well as compounds derived from personal care products. This collection of micro-organisms represents a valuable resource for skin microbiome research, with the potential for developing novel therapeutics and for gaining insight into the metabolic activities of the skin microbiota..."

This course covers all aspects of molecular biosignatures, such as their pathways of lipid biosynthesis, the distribution patterns of lipid biosynthetic pathways with regard to phylogeny and physiology, isotopic contents, occurrence in modern organisms and environments, diagenetic pathways, analytical techniques and the occurrence of molecular fossils through the geological record. Students analyze in depth the recent literature on chemical fossils. Lectures provide background on the subject matter. Basic knowledge of organic chemistry required. Students taking graduate version complete additional assignments.
