Michael Polansky, known for his relationship with Lady Gaga, has founded Outer Biosciences, an AI-driven startup focused on keeping living human skin tissue viable outside the body for extended periods. This innovative approach allows researchers to study skin responses over weeks, enhancing the development of skincare compounds. The company sources tissue from surgeries, ensuring ethical practices and donor privacy.
Polansky's technology enables a significant leap in biological research by maintaining tissue integrity for up to a month, facilitating more comprehensive studies on skin reactions and healing processes. This advancement could reshape how skincare products are tested and developed in the future.
