Lady Gaga and Michael Polansky’s new biotech startup Outer Bio uses donated human skin that would otherwise be thrown away after surgeries.
The tissue is kept alive in a lab, where scientists test thousands of potential ingredients on real human skin. Those results are then used to train AI to better predict which new compounds are most likely to be safe and effective.
The goal is to reduce animal testing, accelerate the discovery of new skincare ingredients, and advance research into skin diseases.
