Sink Microbiome Project

The Sink Microbiome Project is a community science initiative exploring the microbial life living in household bathrooms, including sink drains and countertops. Participants can explore their own results through personalized interactive pages, view overall project results, and learn how everyday personal care and plumbing design can shape the microbiome of the built environment. You can also sign up to participate or support continued community engagement and scientific research through our donation page.
