About
Karen Pendergrass is a microbiome researcher specializing in microbiome-targeted interventions (MBTIs). She systematically analyzes scientific literature to identify microbial patterns, develop hypotheses, and validate interventions. As the founder of the Microbiome Signatures Database, she bridges microbiome research with clinical practice. In 2012, based on her own investigative research, she became the first documented case of FMT for Celiac Disease—four years before the first published case study.

Molecular detection of intrauterine microbial colonization in women with endometriosisThis study reveals that intrauterine microbial colonization is prevalent in women with endometriosis, particularly with Streptococcaceae, Staphylococcaceae, and Enterobacteriaceae. Findings suggest that RHa treatment exacerbates microbial colonization, indicating a possible role for targeted antimicrobial therapies in managing endometriosis-associated inflammation.
