Interestingly enough, seems like they have ditched the scaffold ("Lolli-up) for this "guide approach -- at least they have a second alternative.

Looks simpler, which generally is a good thing, and can indicate that they are starting...
Good point. These hairs showed do look good and healthy overall, even for human standards.
I also liked the fact that they added a control patch that grew no hairs at all, as shown and explained in the picture. Stemson is very professional, no shenanigans with these guys.
I agree the hair doesn't look aesthetically perfected yet. It's a transplanted human hair, in a transplanted human skin in a mousse. If I remember correctly, Geoff said that mouse was not Immunocompromised, so its immune system could be very well attacking the transplanted hair (see how the skin...
Boom! HUGE news. Last 12 months provided major breakthroughs, they are able to create human hairs on human skin on mouse, next stage is going full human in the clinical trials. FDA already "blessed" their plans for clinical trials. Everything is going to plan!

I wonder what was said during that presentation that happened in last may. The last time Aleksey participated in a talk was in that youtube interview with Dr. Wolf back in 2020 as far as I know. I expect his...
Stemson team page is still growing, two fresh additions since last week or so.
I know we are all thirsty for company announcements, however until they refresh their news page again, in the meantime I'm happy to see they are still being able to retain and attract new talent, very strong signal...
“Because the hair germs are neonatal-like,” Hamilton explains, “they are less susceptible to the biochemicals—dihydrotestosterone (DHT), for instance—that damage the dermal papilla in the hair follicle.” As the new hair follicle is formed, its clean, natural environment should offer some...
Good find Froggy.
It looks like Stemson has started their series B fundraising, with the goal of starting clinical trials
Btw that picture of the weirdly shaped hair was **without** the use of the bio degradable scaffold they invented to solve this issue. Presumably they solved that issue...
Interesting!
It’s safe to assume those experienced industry veterans that joined the company as board directors recently had access to the current state of their tech and pre clinical results and if it didn’t look promising and getting closer to clinical trials stage they prob wouldn’t have...
Stemson just added two more people on their team page. One of them is a PhD that previously worked at Pfizer on R&D and has lots of expertise with organoids.
It’s important that they keep the team growing and momentum going
No, we have two decades and millions of posts in the web forums from people commenting solely about stuff that either don’t exist or don’t work.
joking
well not really
