Wyoming scientist, inventor, and entrepreneur Dr. Marnie Peterson is an expert in infectious diseases, antibiotic resistance, and experimental therapeutics. Marnie has invented several patents for her discoveries, conducted research for the National Institute of Health and Department of Defense (among others), and educated the next generation of scientists. As the Chief Scientific Officer and US Managing Director of Perfectus BioMed, a global biosciences company based in Jackson, WY, Marnie and her team provide boutique and customized research services to help companies develop their technologies, refine their intellectual property, and bring new solutions and improved health to individuals and society.A pioneer in conscious science, Marnie conducts all of her research on nonlive animal tissue. Practicing what she calls “farm to bench,” pig tissue is sourced from a local farmer that would have otherwise been discarded after the hog is butchered for human consumption (no pigs are sacrificed specifically for her research). This technique vastly reduces live animal studies and helps make clinical trials more successful because human and pig tissue are so similar. This practice also helps local farmers utilize their entire hog and be more sustainable. Marnie has been developing this nonlive animal approach to drug development and discovery for over 20 years and is a leader in this niche style of research.
