January 2013 in “Elsevier eBooks” The conclusion is that understanding how patterns form in biology is crucial for advancing research and medical science.
June 2012 in “Expert Review of Dermatology” Japanese researchers created new hair follicles from human cells that grew hair when put into mice, and other findings showed a link between eye disease severity and corneal thickness, gene mutations affecting hearing and touch, and the safety of the shingles vaccine for adults over 50.
