Day in the Life of the Centre for Applied Bioscience Research – How is the Centre for Applied Bioscience Research’s work helping to explore the efficacy of cosmetic products? 

Ashley Sullivan is a Postdoctoral Scientist at the Centre for Applied Bioscience Research, who has tested antioxidant activity of cosmetic products against a UVB light challenge in cultured human skin cells (keratinocytes). 

Why is it important? 

Efficacy testing for the cosmetics industry supports effective product communication and ensures regulatory compliance for supporting product claims.
