Melanocytes are cells in your body that create melanin. The melanin is responsible for creating your skin, hair and eye colour. 

Melanocytes are capable of grouping together to form moles. 

Melanoma starts when those melanocytes begin to change, usually in colour, and produce a cancerous mole. ]]> 2017-12-19 14:29:52 UTC https://padlet.com/maddypetts/997bacr4h0r3/wish/217245665 Who invented Skin Analytics? maddypetts https://padlet.com/maddypetts/997bacr4h0r3/wish/217258482                                                                           Skin Analytics was created by Neil Daly. 
Neil Daly was born in Australia where the most common cancer is melanoma. 
He wanted to create a form of technology that would help people detect the early signs of melanoma. 

Daly explained that "having this device detect early stages of melanoma, would guide people into the right path of recovery."
