"Breakthrough: Scientists Successfully 3D Print Hair Follicles, Offering Hope for Baldness Cure"

TL;DR Summary
Scientists in the US have successfully 3D-printed hair follicles in human skin tissue, a major step towards finding a "cure" for baldness. While growing hair is still a few years away, this breakthrough has potential applications in drug testing and skin grafts. The researchers used 3D bioprinting to create hair follicle structures in a precise and reproducible manner. By providing the right conditions and nutrients, the cells self-assembled to form early follicular structures, raising hopes for the eventual growth of hair.
