Summary
This study collects plucked hair follicles from 100 healthy adults to see if cells from them can be turned into stem cells. These stem cells could then be used to model diseases like diabetes or to develop cell-based treatments for injuries. The goal is to learn how well these cells grow and transform, not to treat participants directly.
