February 2012 in “Proceedings of SPIE, the International Society for Optical Engineering/Proceedings of SPIE” A new imaging technique can observe stem cells in living mice without harming them.
December 2016 in “Paleontological Journal” Hair growth can be induced by transplanting certain cells, but these cells lose their properties during culturing. The best cell interaction happens in a liquid medium under gravity, and using collagen doesn't help. Future research could focus on using growth factors to stimulate these cells.
