He has presented his paper at WCHR20103 tittled "Enhancing hair follicle neogenesis in bioengineered human skin substitute". His company has a collaboration with Dr. Cotsarelis. He is from Pennsylvania, USA Dr. Nigam with Colin Jahoda, at WCHR2013, Edinburgh, UK Click here for large images http://www.drnigams.net/images/Edinb...13/Large/8.JPG Dr. Nigam with Kurt Stenn, MD Vice President and Chief Scientific Officer, Aderans Research, at WCHR2013, Edinburgh, UK Click here for large images http://www.drnigams.net/images/Edinb...13/Large/9.JPG Click here for large images http://www.drnigams.net/images/Edinb...3/Large/10.JPG Take aways from the visit... 1)Possibilty of topical finasteride with hydroxypropyl chitosan,orwithnano particles as carrier,or with iontophoresis... 2)3D spheroidal dp culture which lowers scalp dht much more(71.2%) than oral FINA(51.11%) in the same time period and possible without/or minimal the side effects of oral Finasteride. 3) Jahoda corrected me to use dermal sheath cells rather than derml papilla cells for my doubling or HM. 4)Stemcells in the hair follicle in silence and in action..various factors effecting it. 5)Hair doubling now officially proven by independent study in vitro in lab and mouse that a bisected hair follicle with outer root sheath can create its own dermal papilla..if kept in right culture medium...thus supporting our claim of hair doubling posted on forums last month. 6)In the near future 1/2years the nano particle based targetted drug delivery to stemcells in the follicle ,dp,fibrosised parts of follicle will be realty as suggested by Annika Voidt from germany... Will post many more take aways from the world congress on hair research soon... Edited May 9, 2013 by drnigam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
