We have developed a model system that recapitulates nearly all elements of native human skin biology. Currently, the available systems to study biology are limited animal models or other incomplete in vitro culture systems. Animal suffer from well known differences between and organism biology, while fail incorporate critical such as stromal immune cells. Our newly contains skin, allowing for s...

Once one grasps the point that there are almost always individuals who do not follow the group’s mean trend, a fact that may be the result of hidden but nonrandom determinants, the door is open to many exciting new investi...

Furthermore, early generalizations based upon the study of one animal species have often proved to be untrue for others, for nature has not contrived that the same ends shall be accomplished by similar means.
