Congratulations to TRI Research Fellow Kavita Beri, TRI Trustee Bozena Michniak-Kohn, and Sonia Trehan for publishing a special report in Future Science OA, Ahead of Print.
A new wave of cosmetic ingredients containing plant stem cells and their extracts has made its way into the industry. What role do these ingredients play in affecting the aging skin? Several ancient practices such as Ayurveda have used plants as a mainstay of treatment for thousands of years. Plant stem cells could hold an interesting role if we can harness these benefits in cosmetics to create safe and effective organic topical skin care.
