Guys, we have lost our hairs, and so our lives. We have nothing more to lose. I'm not saying that the donation is 100% not a scam, but I would say it's a good bet. Have you ever gambled at casino or bet on soccer? In our lives we have many different bet unconsciously. This time you only need to place a bet of $50 or $100 for a life changing reward. If we lose , okay, we accept it and lives go on, I think losing 50 dollars is not a disaster to most of us, right? If the fund raised does really accelerate the trial process, we all would have done ourselves a favour.

They could incourge ppl by saying that the one that will give the money would get this money back when they would get the treatment.

I couldn't agree more. I wrote about that.
I contacted them and contacted the HLC guy and told them if they are willing to do GoFundMe as it will give them visibility. If they don't I will pay on their website. Waiting to hear from them. I think once we know this thread should be "I donated" thread.

1- it is not a corporation
2- for those who don't want to donate. You don't have to be part of it. Nor opine. Don't worry we are not using your credit card.
If every guy who is NOT donating wants to shime in, then they are just doing a disservice for the entire community. Some people here feel lucky that they get the opportunity to donate to a hair loss research institute. We did not have that luxury to say no in the past.
I know people who asked in the past "whom can I donate to". So please if not interested, move on to other posts.
We don't need to start arguments here.

Go for it.


Is it smart to give Riken your hard-earned $50? I dunno. Maybe not.

But it's no stupider than spending a dozen hours per month on hair loss forums.

What happened to all the idiots claiming the Japanese government would fund clinical trials. If Riken‘s technology were in anyway promising major pharmaceutical giants would be fronting the hundred of millions required to see off the trials. The fact of the matter is that what Riken is offering is no more impressive than Intercytex and we all know what happened to them mid phase III.

For people that once talked about doing their own research founding, RIKEN give an insight in what it actually could costs.

5. Spending plan (guide) - RIKEN
- Expenses for supplies (reagents, consumables, etc.): 50 million JPY about US $372.000
- Non-clinical research and development expenses and clinical research and development support expenses: 350 million JPY about US $3,3 million
- Personnel expenses and honorarium (honorarium for lecturers, etc.): 50 million JPY about US $372.000
- General and administrative expenses (10% of the subscription amount): 50 million JPY about US $372.000

This is for two "branches" of the research, tooth and hair. But its still quite costly.

Also remember this is without getting patents and such.

You're joking right? It's not even close to the same thing as intercytex

Intercytex had a sh*t technology yet they got massive funding, so much that they were able to make it to phase III. If Tsuji were any good they'd have no problem getting funding

So much that they went bankrupt lol. I won't get into funding of Tsuji there is a 50 page thread on that already, but time will reveal all

Well yeah sh*t technologies tend to not succeed, the only thing time will reveal is Riken amounting to f*** all.

Well, good luck! Don't know if it is the best allocation of resources, but won't complain if this puts Tsuji over the top :)

Guys!! I mean really, how can we believe a company that didn’t give us even one single result till now but talking about price treatment? Does Tsuji think that we are stupid or something? The only treatment we saw good results is Follica that’s all and even this we don’t know when it can be released.
