Bloom Science to Participate in Keystone Symposia on Obesity Therapeutics and Microbiome Revolution Symposium

SAN DIEGO, Calif., January 23, 2026 – Bloom Science, Inc., a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing next-generation live biotherapeutic medicines targeting the gut-brain axis, today announced that members of its executive leadership team will participate in the upcoming Keystone Symposia on Obesity Therapeutics and the Microbiome Revolution Symposium hosted by CE-Ventures in Dubai.

These scientific engagements will provide Bloom an opportunity to share its differentiated approach to metabolic and neurological disease, centered on microbiome-driven modulation of the gut-brain axis.

At the Keystone Symposia on Obesity Therapeutics, Bloom plans to engage with leading academic researchers, clinicians, and biotechnology innovators to discuss emerging advances in obesity biology and translational medicine. The company intends to highlight its lead clinical-stage program, BL-001, an orally delivered live biotherapeutic product designed to replicate key therapeutic mechanisms of ketogenic biology through gut-derived metabolic signaling.

“Obesity is a complex, multi-pathway disease that requires innovative therapeutic strategies,” said Christopher Reyes, PhD, Chief Executive Officer of Bloom Science. “We look forward to engaging with leaders in metabolic science and discussing how our live biotherapeutic approach may offer a differentiated path forward.”

At the Microbiome Revolution Symposium in Dubai, Dr. Reyes is scheduled to present Bloom’s platform strategy and clinical progress to an international audience of microbiome researchers, healthcare investors, and industry leaders. The symposium will focus on the growing role of microbiome science in transforming therapeutic development.

Bloom intends to showcase its proprietary IrisRx™ discovery platform and discuss how its programs are designed to influence systemic metabolism and neurological function through the gut-brain axis. The company will also provide updates on BL-001, which demonstrated statistically significant placebo-adjusted weight loss and durable metabolic effects in a Phase 1 clinical trial and is advancing toward Phase 2 development in obesity and rare epilepsies, including Dravet syndrome.

“These forums represent important opportunities to connect with the global scientific and investment communities,” added Dr. Reyes. “We believe microbiome-driven therapeutics are poised to redefine treatment paradigms across metabolic and neurological disease.”

Bloom management will be available for meetings during both events.

    About BL-001 and the Ketogenic Diet

    BL-001 is a first-in-class, orally delivered, Live Biotherapeutic Product (LBP) being developed by Bloom Science. BL-001 is designed to replicate the therapeutic effects of the ketogenic diet. Preclinical data has demonstrated replication of the ketogenic diet therapeutic effect in epilepsy models and further demonstrated modulation of gamma aminobutyric acid (GABA) and other key bioenergetic pathways to suppress hyperexcitability which is a key driver in seizures.

    The ketogenic diet was initially developed in 1921 to mimic fasting as a treatment for epilepsy. The ketogenic diet is a medical diet that is very-low in carbohydrates and high in fat used to treat epilepsy in children but there is accumulating clinical evidence that the diet is effective for weight loss, reversing metabolic dysfunction and treating mental illness. While the ketogenic diet has been shown to work quite well for patients, it can be an incredible challenge to maintain indefinitely.
