at least something to work towards and save up for if you have a good job its doable. however indeed not for the average person as in average salary around the world
Stemson is going to use minipigs in the next stage of their hair cloning research

ok, i agree but not for 50k, this will be a lot more expensive

thatd nake no sense busibess wise. people overstimate rhe number od rich people who cant afford elon musk like transplant anyway who would undergo a completely now and no rigorously tested procedure, most people with such a fortune do jot even bother getting a transplant or use finasteride. stemsons market would be very small, why do you think they are working on improving the procedure, so they can offer it to like 15 people and not even earn their investmenr back? this is complete nonsense
I would like it to be as you write, but knowing life, they will want as much as Tsuji, if they see that there are peoplem willing to pay for it, the price will be high, and the average joe will wait another 10 years

thankfully you are not in business but just a guy who posts on gourmetstylewellness.com
it would be great for me too if i had to pay 50k $ for new hair
We do not know.
Stem cells from the bioreactor
With the aid of artificial stem cells, it will soon be possible to establish new treatments for previously incurable diseases such as Alzheimer's disease. At the Fraunhofer Project Center for Stem Cell Process Engineering SPT, a process for the mass production of these so called induced pluripotent stem cells is being developed.
This process involves new materials, which ensure that industrial cell production will meet high quality standards. The process will be unveiled to the public for the first time at the MEDICA trade fair in Düsseldorf, Germany, between November 15 and 18, 2021 (hall 3, stand E74).
The cells of a growing embryo have a fascinating property. They are able to transform into any other cell type – heart muscle cells, nerve cells and many more. Experts refer to them as pluripotent stem cells. When the human body is fully developed, the cells lose their pluripotency. Recently, however, it has become possible to artificially revert the somatic cells of an adult to their embryonic state. These "induced pluripotent stem cells" (iPS) are an important tool for biotechnologists. This means that somatic cells can be taken from adults with genetic diseases, reprogrammed into iPS cells and then differentiated into heart muscle or nerve cells, which can then be used to test new drugs. Because the iPS cells contain the patient's genome, it's much easier to determine which treatments will be effective for that patient. In this respect, iPS cells have huge potential for personalized medicine. The problem is that thus far, it hasn't been possible to produce iPS cells and culture them in large quantities and to a high quality. There lacks a standardized production line and process for industrial manufacturing that meets regulatory requirements. The new Fraunhofer Project Center for Stem Cell Process Engineering SPT in Würzburg, which is jointly operated by the Fraunhofer Institute for Biomedical Engineering IBMT and the Fraunhofer Institute for Silicate Research ISC, is working on exactly that.
"In this project, we're combining our biotechnology expertise with the materials science know-how," says the Managing Director of SPT, Julia Neubauer of the Fraunhofer IBMT. The Fraunhofer ISC is sharing its vast experience in the development of materials and surface coatings to help optimize the Fraunhofer IBMT biotechnologies for cell culture at the project center. Around the world, most scientists currently use hard, smooth surfaces for cell culture. On this type of surface, cells such as artificial heart muscle cells that actually contract can be grown. They do, however, behave differently to cells in a living body. For example, they hardly react to hormones such as adrenaline, which should make them beat faster. The SPT team is creating more realistic culture conditions so that the iPS cells will develop into more mature cells that behave naturally. Instead of hard surfaces, soft surface coatings made of hydrogels and 3D "biomimetic structures" made with 3D printers are used, for example. The surfaces are also modified with biochemical processes so that tissue-specific environment can be simulated.
The key to iPS cell culture at SPT is the use of bioreactors, in which the cells grow while floating freely in a nutrient solution or adherent on microcarrier. Julia Neubauer and Marco Metzger of the Fraunhofer ISC, the SPT's Deputy Managing Director, explain that in these reactors, the cells are cultured on tiny hydrogel microspheres, for example. They can also grow in small 3D aggregates and interact with each other. These methods successfully mimic natural tissue growth. Another advantage of free-floating iPS cell culture is that the cells receive optimal nutrition and oxygen. In a group of cells on a 2D surface, those on the bottom layer are often less well nourished. The cell environment also doesn't provide natural conditions.

Stemson's R&D team keeps growing. There are 13 people in it now, compared to I think 7 at the beginning of this year. This is a good sign, and they still have open job listings so we can expect the company will keep growing.
The more people we have working at this problem, the bigger the chances they will succeed.
I wish the best luck to them!

The more people working there, the higher are the chances they will deliver the cure. That’s the point.
Nah. We’re fucked!
Would this be the answer for us with dupa as people with dupa cant have a hairtransplant.but saying that ive had a hairtransplant though last year but now apparently he says I suddenly developed hairloss a few months ago.ive been on finasteride for over 12 years and was working great as far as I could tell.

Yes because it doesn’t matter what degree of hairloss you have . The state of your hairloss does not mean anything for the hair follicles they produce for transplant
Well that's great news because apparently the donor is susceptible to dht in dupa so where would they take healthy hairs from to clone them?I've read the entire thread but must have missed that part
