Tiago Matos (Amsterdam UMC): Dermoscope
We developed a scientific-based app capable to quickly identify which personal care products are safe and effective for each specific individual’s skin type. We use on average 10 PCPs daily, that means more than 500 different chemicals that we put in our skin every day. Many products still contain dangerous chemicals that can cause skin diseases and even cancer!

but also reduce the amount of waste and decrease disposal of toxic chemicals or microplastics in the water stream and enviroment.
