Thanks for that 2nd article Dudemon, It would be extremely exciting if someone like l'oreal would get involved (who I know have stem cell research themselves) because it's the kind on company who would benifit financially from say 10,000,000 more people having hair and have the financial power to back it!
But I also read somewhere that they're funded by the german government's educational office, however to get this out of a lab would cost a lost more than a grant to the university.
This video was made after the original story hit news papers, so it would be cool to hear what they are saying in the video without the interpretation of the newspaper reporter (because we all know how they like to hype things up).
