Since its inception in 2002, IFATS has been the world's only interdisciplinary fat tissue society. IFATS uniquely brings together different disciplines within the field in order to share knowledge, influence policy, and exchange new ideas. Scientists and industry can work together toward productive collaborations dedicated to facilitating the development of new technology derived from and directed toward adipose tissue. With four highly successful and well-publicized conferences under its belt, IFATS is now perceived by the media and industry alike as the leading source of information about adipose biology and related technology.
