Welcome from the Chair 

I am absolutely delighted to invite you to join us June 14-16, 2012 for the 57th Annual Meeting of the Plastic Surgery 

Research Council, hosted by the Section of Plastic Surgery at the University of Michigan. The PSRC has consistently 

presented the finest quality basic science and clinical research across the full breadth of plastic surgery. This year’s 

meeting will continue to build on that tradition with many outstanding research presentations, invited speakers, panels, 

and research workshops to provide our meeting registrants with the most innovative and exciting advancements in our 

field. Under the direction of our program chair, Jim Bradley, the PSRC program should prove to be absolutely spectacular. 

The Local Program will feature Lloyd Carr, the former University of Michigan football coach and national champion; 

Dave Brandon, former CEO of Domino’s Pizza and current athletic director; Andrew Feustal, PhD, NASA astronaut and 

veteran of two space shuttle missions; Ora Pescovitz, MD, Executive Vice President for Medical Affairs; Jim Wolliscroft, 

MD, Dean of the University of Michigan Medical School; and Mike Mulholland, MD, PhD, Department of Surgery 

Chairman. We will also have the honor of welcoming nationally recognized scientists Dr. Ormond MacDougall and Dr. 

David Martin who will share with us their incredible accomplishments and scientific advances. 

You will be enjoying the scientific sessions in the Michigan League. A building constructed in the late 1800’s to promote social interaction, it has been 

the center of education, growth, and activism for both the university and the community. As a result, it is an ideal location to host a scientific meeting 

for a professional society that was created for the education and growth of scientists and clinicians in the field of plastic surgery. This year we received 

409 submissions, a record number of abstracts for the PSRC. The scientific program committee worked diligently to select the highest quality abstracts 

for our scientific sessions. Ultimately, 111 outstanding abstracts were selected for podium presentations, representing the finest basic science and 

clinical research in plastic surgery (27% acceptance rate). We have reintroduced poster sessions this year and have selected 48 high quality abstracts, 

representing the full breadth of plastic surgical research. This year’s program will also feature a special one hour Past-Chair’s Panel entitled, “Innovations 

in Our Subspecialties”. This panel will undoubtedly prove to be insightful, informative, and entertaining. Under the direction of Peter Taub, we will host 

the 6 th Annual Guest Society Lecture to be presented this year by Steve Goldstein, PhD, former President of the Orthopedic Research Society. 

The social events will provide plenty of opportunities to enjoy time with your friends, make new friends, and relax in interesting settings. We are 

excited to be able to hold the Welcome Reception at the University of Michigan Football Stadium (AKA the “Big House”) in the VIP area of the new 

luxury suites. The Big House has drawn crowds of over 100,000 people for over 200 consecutive home football games. All these people can’t be wrong 

-it is an amazing place and you will enjoy celebrating the start of the PSRC meeting in this unique location. The Members’ Dinner will be held in the 

Colloquium, located on the sixth floor of the Ross School of Business with stunning views of the University of Michigan campus and Ann Arbor. It is a 

beautiful location for an enjoyable event. 

I am excited to share with you that we will be hosting the Plastic Surgery Foundation Career Fundamentals Workshop entitled, From Residency to 

Tenure: A Road Map for Success for the Academic Plastic Surgeon, immediately following the PSRC meeting. The workshop will begin Saturday 

afternoon, June 16 and end at noon on Sunday. It has been organized by Jim Bradley, Lars Steinstrasser, and me, in cooperation with Keith Hume and 

Jennifer McCormick from the PSF. We have a star-studded faculty of leaders in academia to provide a highly educational, informative, and interesting 

workshop to help our younger PSRC members become successful academic plastic surgeons and future leaders. I hope that you will consider attending 

this excellent workshop. 

Of course, no PSRC meeting is complete without our Annual Hockey Game to be played Saturday night against one of the local hockey teams. Please 

let us know if you plan to play so we can make appropriate arrangements. Make sure your health insurance is paid up. We’ll have our orthopedic 

surgery colleagues on call and ready for business. I look forward to seeing you on the ice. 

I am honored to serve as the Chairman of the Plastic Surgery Research Council and am humbled by the opportunity to host our annual scientific 

meeting at the University of Michigan. It promises to be an outstanding meeting with excellent research, educational opportunities, and fun social 

events. I hope to see you there.

Educational Overview 

The Plastic Surgery Research Council (PSRC) and the Annual Scientific Meeting of the PSRC were developed for physicians and 

scientists in the field of plastic surgery to share their research, be exposed to new discoveries made by their peers, and to develop 

into the leaders of tomorrow. Because all presentations focus on research and emerging trends, the meeting will present the 

most recent findings in the literature and the latest advances in basic science and clinical research. Abstracts are peer-reviewed 

and rated based on several factors, including what is perceived to be of most interest to the prospective learners, what is ‘new 

and exciting’ in the field and what is best supported by the research. The scientific method employed in the basic science and 

clinical research presented at the meeting is the accepted standard for scientific investigation within biomedical investigation. A 

major component of the scientific method requires rigorous peer review, which is the product of open discourse as provided by 

the Plastic Surgery Research Council. We expect that the PSRC will provide the highest quality research incorporating rigorous 

scientific methodology, innovation, and new discoveries to improve the understanding, comprehension, and technical expertise 

of the meeting attendees. In addition, we anticipate, that meeting registrants will also gain new knowledge which will be 

applicable to all of their research pursuits and clinical activities. Undoubtedly, this enhancement in understanding will translate 

into improved clinical care and improved research productivity and advancement of the field of plastic surgery. 

Target Audience 

The Annual Meeting of the PSRC is intended for plastic surgeons, residents, fellows, medical students and other healthcare 

professionals interested in plastic surgery research. 

OBJECTIVES 

At the conclusion of this activity, participants should be able to: 

• Discuss clinical and basic science research in the fields allied to plastic surgery 

• Identify new research methods and results that are most likely to improve the practice of plastic surgery, including current 

methodologies for clinical outcome studies in evidence based medicine 

• Contribute to open discussion and critique of presented information 

Disclosure 

The American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) requires all faculty, authors, planners, reviewers, managers, and other 

individuals in a position to control or influence the content of an activity to disclose all relevant financial relationships or

balance, scientific objectivity and appropriateness of patient care recommendations. The ASPS also requires faculty/authors to 

disclose when off-label/unapproved uses of a product are discussed in a CME activity or included in related materials. 

Accreditation
