We are honored to invite you to the upcoming 5th International Anatomical Sciences and Cell Biology Conference (IASCBC) scheduled from 24-26 July 2018 at the Berjaya University College, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
This conference will provide a platform which brings together scientists, researchers, academicians, post-graduates and experts from the fields of anatomy, microscopy and cell biology, as well as a broad range of medical, biomedical and health sciences discipline to share the current developments in their respective areas. For the first time, Malaysia will be hosting this much anticipated conference which will be held in the prestigious Berjaya University College at Kuala Lumpur.
We take pleasure in inviting you to two enriching days of scientific networking which we truly believe will be beneficial and fulfilling. If you have any further enquiries, please do not hesitate to contact us at iascbc2018@gmail.com

Dear Colleagues,
The Federative International Committee for Scientific Publications (FICSP) of the IFAA is dedicated to the advancement of the anatomical sciences through all forms of publication. In this regard, we are pleased to announce our endorsement and support for the following two publications. We believe that both of these papers will enhance and improve the guidelines on which anatomical studies are built.
Development of the Anatomical Quality Assurance (AQUA) checklist: Guidelines for reporting original anatomical studies.
Development of the anatomical quality assessment (AQUA) tool for the quality assessment of anatomical studies included in meta-analyses and systematic reviews.

It is my understanding that you are contact person for your Society. Your Society is a Member Society of the International Federation of Associations of Anatomists (IFAA). Please distribute this information from the IFAA to the members of your Society.
It is my pleasure to inform you that Prof. Beverley Kramer, President of the IFAA, was recently selected as a Fellow of the American Association of Anatomists (AAA). The rank of Fellow of the AAA is designed to honor distinguished members who have demonstrated excellence in science and in their overall contributions to the anatomical sciences. Please join me in congratulating Prof. Kramer for this distinction.
The following is a message from Prof. John Fraher, Chair of the Federative International Programme for Anatomical Terminology (FIPAT), a standing committee of the IFAA:
The Changing Face of FIPAT: Web publication of Terminologia Embryologica and Terminologia Neuroanatomica
FIPAT is pleased to announce that the latest version of Terminologia Embryologica[TE2] was published on February 21. Publication of Terminologia Neuroanatomica followed on February 23. Both are available on the open part of the Dalhousie section of the FIPAT website [FIPAT.library.dal.ca]. Both represent the official terminologies of the anatomical profession.
In the lead-up to this, the then current versions of Terminologia Anatomica [TA], Terminologia Embryologica [TE] and Terminologia Neuroanatomica [TNA] were made available to the IFAA member societies by means of a specialised Internet DropBox in early 2016. Responses were incorporated and TA, TNA and TE were all further reviewed and developed extensively.
Website publication represents a major milestone in the progress and development of FIPAT. Replacement of the book format by electronic publication is a central element of FIPAT strategy. Inevitably, the book format, while elegant and authoritative, entailed very long delays in revision and updating. By contrast, electronic publication has the key advantages of providing wide availability and of enabling responsiveness to feedback on terminology in close to real time. It enables frequent revision and updating. FIPAT organisation is geared to react rapidly to feedback, comment, criticisms and proposals through its structure; a specific working group is responsible for each Terminologia.
TE2 and TNA will be closely followed by TA2. The published terminologies are licensed under a Creative Commons International Licence of the CC BY-ND form.
