These presentations include: updates on the 3-D culturing model of dermal papilla stem cells and its application in hair multiplication; techniques for “reprogramming” normal skin fibroblast cells into dermal papilla cells (hair follicle stem cells); and a technique for creating large amounts of multiplied/cloned hair follicles in a chip bioreactor.
What’s more, several members of other online hair restoration discussion forums started a crowd-funding initiative and raised enough capital to send a member to report on the conference. The member has a background in science and agreed to record and report on the conference and interview several prominent researchers.
The conference is being held from May 14th through the 17th, and I am updating the community with news from the congress on our Hair Loss Breakthroughs and Future Treatments discussion thread. Please check the thread at our Hair Restoration Discussion Forums for exciting updates!
