Scientific Advisory Board

Expertise that makes an impact.

Research is only as good as the people who conduct it. That's why we at Mallia work closely with leading experts in dermatology, immunology, and hair science. Their knowledge not only shapes our product development – it also ensures the quality and integrity of every single active ingredient.

Why a SAB?

Our Scientific Advisory Board (SAB) is more than just a committee – it is an active part of our development process. It supports us in key decisions relating to:

  • the evaluation of new active substances and technologies.
  • the planning and evaluation of studies.
  • the transfer of basic research into practical applications.

This ensures that 8T3 always remains at the cutting edge of research, while also being safe, effective, and responsible.

Our SAB members

Top scientists in their field.

Our Scientific Advisory Board (SAB) brings together leading minds from medicine, research, and clinical development. Their decades of expertise form the foundation for the further development of 8T3 – from the selection of active ingredients to the evaluation of their efficacy.

Each member contributes their own perspective – together, they stand for scientific depth, ethical diligence, and genuine impact.

How does the Scientific Advisory Board work?

Mallia's Scientific Advisory Board is an independent panel of experts. It critically monitors our research, scrutinizes new developments, and brings insights from medicine and science to our work—constructively, knowledgeably, and free from marketing interests.

  • Regular reviews of our development and study data
  • Continuous exchange with the internal research unit
  • No marketing role – purely scientific expert advice
