We l c o m e
from the
2016 IFATS President
IFATS invites you to our 14th annual meeting in San Diego on November 17-20.
This year we kick off the meeting with an exciting morning dedicated to “The Process Engineering of the Fat Graft”.
This is the first ever symposium of its kind, dedicated to all the aspects necessary to get the best fat graft possible.
You will hear a panel of experts including clinicians, research scientists, and industry leaders discuss the “best
practices” for every step involved in delivering “the ideal fat graft”. You will hear about the best cannulas, the best
harvesting methods, whether pre-treatment of donor or recipient area works, get a heads-up on exciting state-of-the
art products that will improve your results, and learn the best ways to deliver a fat graft.
On Saturday afternoon, a Legislative Issues panel will be really important, especially given the most recent FDA
tissue guidances regarding Fat Grafting and what constitutes acceptable practices. Did you know that fat grafting to
the breast is at risk according to these new FDA tissue guidances? Come to our meeting and find out more.
IFATS holds the premier annual meeting dedicated to the science of fat grafting and this year we bring together
not only the leading clinical practitioners with whom we are all familiar, but also leading endocrinologists from
the American Society of Bone and Mineral Research, experts in the field of genomics and big data as applied to
medicine, and stem cell researchers from other specialties such as cardiology and orthopedics.
Don’t miss this rare opportunity to get “The Big Picture” about fat grafting, from the bench to clinical uses and
beyond to the possibilities of applying “Big Data” techniques to our growing knowledge.

United States, might we add).

AREA ATTRACTIONS FOR FAMILY MEMBERS
BALBOA PARK
Balboa Park is over a 1400
acre site with historical
buildings, numerous
museums, gardens, and
green space. The park was
created for the Panama
California Exhibition of
1915-1916 with most of the
buildings in the park
remaining from that
event. The predominant
architecture is Spanish-Mexican style, low level buildings that
blend in with the natural surroundings. Among the highlights
of the park are the Botanical Gardens and lily pond, the Museum
of Man, the Museum of Natural History, the San Diego Museum
of Art, and the famous San Diego Zoo. Even if you never go into
a building the park is simply a beautiful place.
GASLAMP QUARTER
In downtown San Diego
is the Gaslamp Quarter
National Historic District,
an area of restored late
19th and early 20th
Ce n t u r y Vi c t o r i a n
buildings. Today the
Gaslamp Quarter is a
trendy area with shops,
restaurants, and galleries,
attracting locals and tourists. The area covers less than 20 blocks
and runs approximately from Broadway to San Diego Bay. There
are also a large number of upper end hotels that are popular with
both tourists and business travelers due to its great location in the
city. This area underwent restorations in the 1970s which
eventually led to it being listed on the National Register of Historic
Places.
SEAWORLD
SeaWorld San Diego is
one of the city’s main
attractions, particularly for
families. It is located along
the waterfront in Mission
Bay. For many American’s
SeaWorld has been a long
time family tradition,
having been around since the 1960s. Among the highlights are
the myriad of shows featuring killer whales, sea lions, dolphins,
and other sea life. There are all kinds of rides from roller coasters
plowing into water, to more sedate carnival type rides for tots.
SeaWorld is an aquarium that allows for close up looks at sharks
and other sea creatures that can be seen through an acrylic tunnel,
along with touch tanks, and close encounters with dolphins and
inhabitants of tidal pools.
USS MIDWAY MUSEUM
Walking along the San
Diego waterfront trail,
visitors may be surprised
when they come across
one of the US military’s
largest ships. The
decommissioned USS
Midway is permanently
berthed at Navy Pier. The
highlights of a visit to the USS Midway Museum include over 60
exhibits and 25 restored aircraft. Over 225,000 military service
personnel served on the ship and today visitors can take a selfguided audio tour to learn all about its history. For an additional
fee visitors can try a flight simulator on board.
