Chalk up another awesome discovery in science to what?
Intent? -Nah. Too easy. Too straightforward. Makes us humans look [way too much] like we know what we’re doing.
ACCIDENTS FTW!!!
Those rockstar-bada**es at The Salk Institute have done it again!
The best part?
JUMP BONUS!:
The factor involved in the regrowth for these genetically-engineered superstressed-mice? -It’s also present in humans.
-BOOM!
+AND; This time they found a cure that can be administered over just a short time window,
–which then goes on to last ~about 17% of the lab animal’s total lifecycle for that 1 application.
So maybe sometime soon, men will have the Choice of which hairstyle to sport, instead of having Stress or Genetics choose it for them as time passes.
Hit up the links for more full coverage and details, as they’re worth a read,
and Salk btw is worthy of your ritual offerings of steaks, barbies, scantily-clad [but still breathing, van-dwellers, mkay?] supermodels, and Guinness-kegs on the altar of their Supernova-sized Existential-Rockstar-Bada**itude.
