Researchers at the Technical University of Berlin, with the support of the German Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF), have developed a skin model that is not created using skin cells, but using cells taken from hair. And now they are trying to create artificial skin that has hair - just like in real life.

Many popular media in Europe reported about this breakthrough during the past few days – of course most of these articles are published in the German language.
