research???

So, I was searching the web today and I couldnt find any new developments in alopecia research. Maybe i just suck really bad at searching the web but it upset me. there are no new findings and it makes me feel like nobody cares about it. if people do get grants to research on it shouldnt there be updates or something online. i would think it would be news worthy.

so this is half venting and the other half is a question...

has anyone heard anything new lately?

Thank you!

Try www.naaf.org, National Alopecia Areata Foundation. They have the research news.

The ONLY thing that I have come across in the last 5 years was a study haivng to do with Plaquenil. This was clinical trial that supposedly has been completed, however I cannot find any of the findings. Anyone know anything about that one?

We came across this article, it was very interesting...

It is from 2005, you would think something more would come of it but I have not heard of anything.

Hi Camille,

I need to send you a message, but the AW link isn't working so I hope you get this. I have a request from a Dutch magazine to use the photo of you and your mom and me from the NBO Day. It will be in connection with an article about alopecia. Would this be okay with you?...send me a message or post back here if that doesn't work. Thanks! Mary
