Bacteria growing in a cell culture.
On the skin&#8217;s surface, bacteria are abundant, diverse and constant, but inflammation is undesirable. Research at the University of California, San Diego School of Medicine now shows that the normal bacteria living on the skin surface trigger a pathway that prevents excessive inflammation after injury.

&#8220;These germs are actually good for [...]]]></description>
