Human Growth and Growth Hormone: From Antiquity to the Recominant Age to the Future

5 Jul 2021

Abstract excerpt

Since antiquity Man has been fascinated by the variations in human (and animal) growth. Stories and art abound about giants and little people. Modern genetics have solved some of etiologies at both extremes of growth.
