The goal of research is to impact patient care. Was an honor to return to the MA statehouse today to testify in support of expanding coverage for cranial prosthetics (wigs) to patients with #alopeciaareata . Thank you to National Alopecia Areata Foundation for supporting the research we presented today.

Today, our fearless leader Arash Mostaghimi provided testimony to the MA legislature on a bill to provide scalp prosthesis (wig) coverage for patients with alopecia areata. Thank you for advocating for your patients and sharing your expertise on this issue, Arash! 🤩
