Ever wonder what actually happens behind the scenes in a genomics lab? Joe Starnes and Caitlin Clark, MBA visited our lab partner Eurofins to see the process behind our microbiome sequencing work. We got to walk through: 🧬 The lab workflows that turn biological samples into sequence data ⚙️ The Illumina MiSeq machines in action 📈 The systems and people making sure data is clean, high quality, and reliable Big thank you to the Eurofins team for hosting us and giving us the full behind-the-scenes. Feeling even more confident in the science — and the partnership — behind what we're building. #ombre #guttest #microbiome #science #biotech #labvisit

Ombre team visited #Lighthouse this week — a space dedicated to helping Nashville startups grow.

📍 Ombre at the Nashville Entrepreneur Center ➡️ We visited the Nashville Entrepreneur Center to learn how the local ecosystem is supporting healthcare and tech founders — and how companies like ours can engage more meaningfully. NEC plans to support over 1,000 entrepreneurs annually by 2027, with a growing focus on healthcare, fintech, and emerging tech. As we continue building at Ombre, understanding how these ecosystems grow — and where they stall — helps shape how we move forward. Thanks to the NEC team for the conversations and for sharing what you're building. 👏 #Ombre #Healthcare #Entrepreneurship #StartupEcosystems #Nashville
