The ICRS family has lost one of its finest members, Dr. Freddie H. Fu. He was an ICRS member since the very beginning of our association in 1997 and Chairman of the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine and Distinguished Service Professor, University of Pittsburgh. Dr. Fu specialized in Sports Medicine and served as the Head Team Physician for the University of Pittsburgh Athletic Department. He died this Friday in Pittsburgh at the age of 70.

It is our honour to introduce the third issue of the Journal of Cartilage & Joint PreservationTM (JCJP), the official journal of the International Cartilage Regeneration & Joint Preservation Society (ICRS). As many of our readers already know, this journal is an exciting new endeavour sponsored and supported by ICRS, and made possible through Elsevier. It is an open-access journal, so you can read it anywhere, anytime, completely free with no restrictions.
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.
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.
