They cured hair loss in mice at least twenty times now and we still have bald humans
They should probably find a way to turn humans into mice. It's a shame to leave billions of dollars on the table like that.
Might be a good concept for a sci fi story actually, probably a comedic one. Scientists learn how to cure any disease and reverse aging, but only for mice. Conveniently for plot reasons, they also figure out how to turn people into mice and back. You can get any disease cured or become young again...but you have to spend three months as a mouse.
I cannot remember what but I've heard of mention of a story where because there's so many cures of disease for mice that they take over the world or something. It's such a faint mention sorry
Pinky and the Brain. Obviously.
