GlossaryBioinformatics Analysis (Computational Biology Analysis)

using computer tools to interpret complex biological data

Bioinformatics Analysis involves using computer software and algorithms to interpret biological data, such as DNA sequences or protein structures. This type of analysis helps scientists understand complex biological processes, identify genetic markers for diseases like alopecia, and develop new treatments by analyzing large datasets that would be impossible to process manually.

community So we have 20k dollars human like machines available but no new effective treatment for hairloss since finasteride :)

in Chat 237 upvotes 3 weeks ago

There have been no new effective hair loss treatments since finasteride, despite technological advancements. Current treatments include finasteride, minoxidil, and RU58841, with ongoing challenges and potential future solutions in research.

community Fats on your Head to Stop Hair Loss?

in Research/Science 137 upvotes 8 months ago

The conversation discusses the potential of long-chain unsaturated fatty acids, like oleic and linoleic acid, as an additional treatment for hair loss, which may inhibit the enzyme responsible for converting testosterone to DHT and promote hair growth. Users humorously suggest using oils topically and discuss other hair loss treatments, but the main focus is on the science behind fatty acids and their role in hair health.
