WHO: Pendulum Therapeutics is disrupting the probiotics industry, pioneering the next frontier to restore metabolic health. The biotech company develops microbiome-targeted products that have the power and efficacy of a pharmaceutical with the safety and accessibility of a probiotic. Led by Colleen Cutcliffe, co-founder and CEO who received her PhD in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology from Johns Hopkins University, Pendulum was founded in 2012 by a diverse team of scientists with deep microbiology, biochemistry, computational, and clinical expertise. They have debuted multiple rigorously tested products backed by the Mayo Clinic and available online at Amazon, Dr. Mark Hyman Store, Walmart Marketplace, Fullscript, and The Cleveland Clinic online pharmacy.
WHY: Berry has been an avid Pendulum customer for over a year and will now collaborate with Pendulum's executive team on future product development and innovation. Acting as a brand evangelist, Berry will empower people to live healthy, well-balanced lives through the health of their gut microbiome. Berry's partnership with Pendulum signals a new chapter of growth for the female-led company.
IN THEIR OWN WORDS: "Your gut and microbiome are so important to the rest of your overall health. It's all connected. When I started using Pendulum, I immediately felt the difference in both my body and mind and I have been using it every day since," says Halle Berry, Chief Communications Officer at Pendulum Therapeutics. "I am beyond excited to join the brilliant and thoughtful Pendulum team.
