Ehm.... so folks... apparently this news is much more interesting than it looks like from the article linked in this thread:

http://www.xconomy.com/boston/2013/06/03/hair-raising-follica-study-could-point-to-baldness-therapy/

Not only is Follica not dead, but they are very much up to something good

Make a thread, the other Follica one is long gone. And this is interesting.

And that's from this year correct? That's pretty good news that they are still working at it.

from today, not only from this year

yeah I want to make a good Follica and Histogen threads with timelines, news, links, and all info and good posts posted about them in the past but until the mods allow us to implement some of the reorganization proposals we gave them a while ago I refuse to put any time into creating threads that will result in lawlesness and a bunch of negative comments by the same 10 people who read no news and updates and once a month wake up to tell us all research is BS because the cure hasn't been found in the last 30 days and therefore life sucks and we should all give up

Just goes to show how guys on the forums jump to conclusions and get it wrong, so many people said Follica was dead and now we get this news. This seems like really good news to me, such a shame Follica are always so secretive.

no it's good, it means they are on to something they want to keep at it without receiving emails from people on forums every 5 minutes

When there will be a cure we will know guys...

What is interesting is that new members have been added to their team. Bernat Olle, who is now listed as a "Co-Founder", had never actually spoken to the media about this. In addition Gwill York of Lighthouse is on the board, which suggests a new investor. G. Kirk Raab, formerly of Genentech, is gone.

Haha so true, forum dwellers are so impatient (me included )

It reminds me of that episode of the Simpsons when they go on holiday and Bart and Lisa are constantly going, 'Are we there yet?' 'Are we there yet?' 'Are we there yet?' 'Are we there yet?'

Seriously dude, like, we just had the best 5 days of hair news in a while, two companies coming back from complete darkness, Histogen giving final results for HSC phase 1/2A, basically the more positive news the more people on here will not be satisfied and want more.
