Welcome to the website for the North American Hair Research Society. The North American Hair Research Society members are clinical or basic science researchers that who are committed to unraveling the causes and developing effective treatments for disorders of hair growth.

The North American Hair Research Society's mission is:

To strongly encourage and promote scientific research in the field of the normal and disordered hair growth.
To promote dissemination of state of the art knowledge on hair biology and medical hair disorders.
To promote interdisciplinary interaction between basic scientists and clinicians through regular meetings, publications and innovative communication.
To establish links with other international hair research societies and to arrange combined meetings on a periodic basis.
To educate both our colleagues and the public on hair biology and the pathophysiology and treatment of hair related conditions.
To create and maintain a database of hair disorders that will foster greater enhanced communication between bench scientists, clinicians, industry, patient support societies, lay public, government and managed care organizations.
This website was designed to facilitate and promote communication amongst researchers, to provide ready access to recently published articles or presentations on hair research and treatment and to inform researchers and interested clinicians of upcoming meetings pertinent to hair biology and research. Hair-related meetings over the next year, both national and international, are noted.
