Stem Cells and Development has announced that the International Federation for Adipose Therapeutics and Science (IFATS) has named Stem Cells and Development its Official Journal. IFATS is a non-profit scientific society that promotes the exchange of information among researchers. Their objective is to bring together as members, professionals of the science, medical and industry areas for productive collaborations around the adipose tissue research in all its possible fields. IFATS is currently the world’s only interdisciplinary fat tissue society.
Stem Cells and Development is globally recognized as the trusted source for critical but fair evaluation of emerging hypotheses and novel findings by basic and clinical scientists seeking the responsible advancement of reparative medicine. The stated areas of interest for the International Federation of Adipose Therapeutics and Science aligns with Stem Cells and Development: the development of treatments and the use of adipose tissue as a source of mesenchymal stem cells that have the potential to regenerate and repair different body tissues, notes Dr. Graham C. Parker, Editor-in-Chief of the journal.
Dr. Parker and the leadership of Stem Cells and Development will work even more closely with the IFATS to enhance their mission, the Journal, and the field.
