November 2021 in “Applied Microscopy” Hair microscopy is a simple and cost-effective method to help diagnose systemic diseases in children.
October 2012 in “Faculty Opinions – Post-Publication Peer Review of the Biomedical Literature” Scientists used a special imaging technique to observe that hair follicle regeneration involves cell division and structural changes, mostly in the lower part of the follicle, and that the dermal papilla at the base is crucial for regrowth.
