Dr. Heilmann-Heimbach will speak on: Updates on the Inheritance of AGA for the Practicing Hair Surgeon
Stefanie Heilmann-Heimbach is a research fellow at the Institute of Human Genetics at the University
Hospital Bonn, where she leads the research group on male-pattern hair loss. She earned her PhD in
Molecular Biomedicine and completed her Habilitation in Human Genetics at the Rheinische
Friedrich-Wilhelms-University Bonn. Dr. Heilmann-Heimbach’s research focuses on uncovering the
genetic and biological mechanisms underlying male-pattern hair loss. Her contributions have been
instrumental in identifying and interpreting genetic risk factors associated with the condition,
advancing the understanding of its hereditary and molecular basis.
