Dr Bessam Farjo was interviewed by Nick Gowing on ‘The Hub’ program on the BBC World News channel on March 22, 2012.
This was on the back of the latest research unveiled from University of Pennsylvania showing the discovery of PGD2. This is a prostaglandin type molecule that inhibited hair growth in mice. Researchers said they hoped the development or discovery of a compound that suppressed PGD2 would lead to a potential treatment for hair loss. See our hair transplant blog about this.
