research How different is human hair? A critical appraisal of the reported differences in global hair fibre characteristics and properties towards defining a more relevant framework for hair type classification
Human hair varies widely and should be classified by curl type rather than race.
research Fabrication and characterization of epithelial scaffolds for hair follicle regeneration
Scientists created three types of structures to help regrow hair follicles, and all showed promising results for hair regeneration.
research Decay of Skin-Specific Gene Modules in Pangolins
Pangolins have lost some skin-related genes, but kept others, leading to their unique scales and skin features.
research The genetic basis of dermatophytosis skin infection susceptibility
Genetic factors, skin barrier, immune function, and obesity influence risk of fungal skin infections.
