Summary:
Scientists have coaxed stem cells into growing hair for the first time. Writing in the journal Nature, the scientists described how they had shown that adult mammals are able to grow new hair follicles. The breakthrough could also lead to new treatments for other conditions, such as alopecia, in which hair is lost in patches. Within a decade, advances in stem cell science could help them to regrow their own hair where it has been lost.
