84: Living with Alopecia

For our February episode, Abbi finds out all about Alopecia. Alopecia means hair loss and it can affect any or all areas of the body, and can be temporary or permanent. We are joined by three guests. Firstly, from CAR, we have Research Fellow Dr Kerry Montgomery and Senior Lecturer – formerly Senior Research Fellow at CAR - Dr Fabio Zucchelli. We are also joined by Sue Schilling, CEO of Alopecia UK, a national charity aiming to improve the lives of those affected by alopecia.
