CURRENTLY RECRUITING STUDIES
Alopecia Areata
Alopecia Areata is an autoimmune disease that causes hair loss on the scalp, face, and sometimes other body areas, like under the arms or on the legs. People with alopecia areata most often lose hair in circular, coin-sized patches on the scalp, but in more severe cases, they may lose all of their hair.

Psoriasis
Psoriasis is a skin disease that comes in several forms, but plaque psoriasis is the most common. Plaques are raised red patches covered with a whitish buildup of dead skins cells called scale. They usually show up on elbows, knees, scalp, and lower back, but they can appear anywhere. Plaques often itch or hurt.
