Lauster's 2010 prediction?
Professor Roland Lauster at Berlin’s Technical University believes his work could be a step towards providing treatment for the 80 per cent of people who suffer from hair loss worldwide.
Lauster claims the treatment – which would probably require the hair follicles to be implanted on to the head – could be available in five years.
What is the status of Berlin's treatment? Considering the cure should be out by now. Sorry of this has already been addressed.

Scientists make these kinds of statements to attract money. I'm pretty sure we're more than 5 years away right now. 5 years would mean they'd have to start trials NOW. But we're probably even 5 years away from a pre clinical cure. So at the moment I think it would be a safe guess that we're at least 10 years away. Probably (way) more though.

They did attract potential investors and when they showcased their work, Lauster's team got snubbed by everyone.
Basically: nobody cares to cure baldness.

We still got 2 months. It might come, be patient dude.

@BoSox:
Few months ago dr Gerd Lindner, who works with dr Lauster, said in the interview published on *** by hellouser:
How far are you? Does it work in animal models?
We have progressed so far with the development of this technology that preclinical animal studies and clinical trials on humans can be processed after acquisition of adequate financing in a detailed planned test program now. We are very confident that this technique is successful because at the development of hair shafts even succeed in vitro.

So they seem to be VERY close. In this november everything will be clear.

It will never be cure for hair loss. Not in next 30 years. Maybe better treatment, but with a lot of side effects and it will not work for all.
Hair loss is really hard to cure.

We need to have Desmond and hellouser ask at the congress:
1) dr christiano about the New York Times article stating she created a company called rapunzel to commercialize her 3d spheroid method.
2) dr Linder or dr atac when will your method be available for clinical use.

If you have the money, a HT is just about as good as it's going to be for awhile. There are some pretty great docs out there now where the results are pretty indistinguishable from non-baldies.

That's absolutely true, but what we need (at a minimum) is a way to at least maintain hair without any nasty side effects....
A topical that doesn't go systemic, at the least.

Just the same pure speculation as ,,5 years away'' but based on worse mood.
