7th World Congress for Hair Research (2013)

The topical finasteride looks interesting, How can we get hold of this now?

Once the study is released to the public im guessing it will explain the vehicle in which the finasteride was delivered topically?

Tho i agree does look interesting

I never once said treatments are "5years away". Im not deluding myself also.

Link works if you type in Hairsite.

The topical finasteride looks interesting - but im not interested if its 5 years away.

not sure if linking to another site is aloud tho there is a simular post on Hair site that might be worth a read

just replace the **** with hair site ( minus the space )

looks like my link doesn't work. Anyways the thread in on hair site if you guys want a read. Its all 7th World Congress for Hair Research related.

Dazza, I think you're deluding yourself, when you can count the number of organisations researching hair loss treatments on one hand, something kind of tells you its not "5 years away".

Edited post as it had nothing to do with the thread. lets keep this 7th World Congress for Hair Research (2013) related

So at my best estimate I'd probably say those people who have not been born yet, people who will be born in about 5 years time (ha! 5 years lol) are most likely to see a better treatment by the time they hit their late teens/early 20's.

This is what I am thinking also. For cases like mine (5th decade of life) it is already "game over". But I think about the kids of my daughter. They will almost certainly suffer from the same plague (I got the genes from my grandfather also, from the side of my mother; my father is quite OK for his age). But by the time they reach their 20's, which would be about three decades from now, it is almost certain that all this will be past. Even if there is no cure for someone who is already bald, I am very confident that there will be ways to safely keep your hair.

Morbo is absolutely spot on, we cloned Dolly the sheep nearly two decades ago but there's probably no indication of us cloning humans in this century! Biology>Physics in complexity - the complexity of organisms is just mind boggling ask any evolutionary biologist and they'll tell you.

Guys, im going to be blunt, I'm usually all for and positive about the "technological progress" being made in cell therapy etc, but everything being discussed is still in theoretical stages. Dr Nigam stated there are individuals who are coming up with new ideas for hair loss cures... okay... now ask yourself how long an IDEA takes to go from 'idea stage' to a marketable product.

You're talking over a decade for every idea, so even if you're in your early 20's, you'll probably be hitting 40 by the time some of these ideas come out (granted they've made it through the deathly firey pit of legal/safety/corruption/greed/self-interest hurdles first), and by the time your 40, you'll think... meh, whats the point now?

So at my best estimate I'd probably say those people who have not been born yet, people who will be born in about 5 years time (ha! 5 years lol) are most likely to see a better treatment by the time they hit their late teens/early 20's.

Dr Nigam, do you think Dr Gerd could add Hellousers picture to his presentation?

[Jairus]

ETA for Histogen's presentation?

[eqvist]

After visiting the congress..it's my observation that forum discussions among few members are nothing short of discussions and knowledge of researchers....
Well,I am fortunate to benefit from both the groups...

Your approach to finding a solution to hair loss makes me positive! To use knowledge that some of these forums memders has and let them help you with reachers i think could lead to something very good!

[Pentarou]

Dr Nigam, has there been any signs at the congress that any business attending is likely to launch any new anti-hairloss products, however minor, in the next 5 years or less?

[Pentarou]

Dr Nigam, my respect for you has increased enormously. Thank you for keeping us at BTT informed.

[Artista]

Dr Nigams , I must say that Im impressed with your sincerity. You have gone out of your way in providing information and updates to all of us here at the BTT forum.
Especially in regards to the latest convention. Thank you sir
