Hair follicles => stem cells => neurons
Scientific American says stem cells from hair follicles can change into neurons. This would seem to neutralize North Korea's claim, previously reported here, that hair growth robs the brain of energy since, even if that's true, you can always generate new neurons.
This is better news for one Brian than the other if future medical treatments require an abundance of hair follicles.
