I want to take this opportunity to congratulate JCJP’s inaugural Editor-in-Chief (EIC), Lisa A. Fortier, DVM, PhD, DACVS on her appointment to Editor-in-Chief/Division Director of the Publications Division with the American Veterinary Medical Association.  Lisa has done a wonderful job during her tenure as EIC of our new Open Access journal, the Journal of Cartilage & Joint Preservation, and has put the new journal firmly on the map as the Official Journal of the ICRS. Her new appointment, however, has necessitated her stepping away from the JCJP editorship, effective July 1, 2021.

We are excited to announce a series of complimentary Zoom webinars on several hot topics in cartilage- & joint regeneration between April and September 2021! Next Webinar is  Wednesday, July 7, 2021 | 15:00 CEST with Mats Brittberg (SE) & Gian Salzmann (DE) and Christoph Elser (DE) presenting: “Cartilage Regeneration with Minced Cartilage”

The Biologic Association (BA) is an orthopaedic organization dedicated to providing one voice for all matters on musculoskeletal biologics and regenerative medicine. Since ICRS is a Founding Members of the BA we want to share an upcoming complimentary educational opportunity provided by the BA.

As you know, we just launched the official ICRS Journal of Cartilage & Joint Preservation^TM (JCJP) in December and we proudly have an average time from submission to final acceptance of 50 days!

We are very proud to announce the launch of our  new official ICRS Mobile APP (International Cartilage Regeneration & Joint Preservation Society), through which you can launch our educational events such as World Congresses, Summits and Focus Meetings and get at the same time important ICRS Push Notifications on your mobile device. ICRS will regularly add new conferences to this App, so there  is no need to delete the app and reinstall a new one!

On behalf of the ICRS we would like to congratulate our member Prof. MD Leela Biant on having been voted as President Elect of the British Association of Surgery of the Knee (BASK). This is another very significant “first” as she is the first woman to hold the Post. Her term as President of BASK will be for 2021-22. Well done Leela!
