If you make an insertable pill with X predefined microbes, the FDA/EMA likely want you to get it approved as a drug.
HumanMicrobiome sounds like a project that’s doable with a million-dollar as capital. I expect that you might need a billion to do a proper job at the synthetic FMT capsule task.
I’m confused. Human Microbes is already being done with hardly any money?
Michael Harrop is basically a complete amateur, and he’s been doing it for a while now.
What do you mean with Human Microbiome. What project are you talking about?
Sure, the things you mention need FDA approval and are super expensive.
Of sorry, I got the name wrong. I wanted to say that the thing that Michael Harrop does is possible to do with little money because even the FDA seems to understand that it would be crazy to require clinical tests for approving individual donors.
On the other hand, if you would start a project for synthetic FMT capsules, I doubt that it could be done at that funding level in the current regulatory environment.
