Welcome Message

Dear Friends and Colleagues,

On behalf of the Japan Stroke Society, we are delighted to invite you to the 10th Korea-Japan Joint Stroke Conference (KJJSC2022 Osaka), which will be held virtually on 17 (Sat) and 18 (Sun) September 2022.

KJJSC has a twenty-year history. The first conference was held in Seoul in 2002, the year of FIFA World Cup Korea/Japan. Since then, the conference has been alternately held in both countries generally every two years. The conferences encouraged much academic and social interaction between stroke physicians and stroke researchers in Korea and Japan.

KJJSC2022 Osaka will be held as a virtual meeting for the first time of the twenty-year history of KJJSC. We will host the conference from the studio in Namba, Osaka. We strongly hope that we can freely shuttle to and fro between the countries in 2022. However, no one currently knows if very safe in-person meeting can be held in September 2022. We will plan the most attractive KJJSC ever on web.

The theme of KJJSC2022 Osaka is “New friendship between K & J in the new standard era”. World Stroke Organization and Asia Pacific Stroke Organization endorse our conference. We are preparing joint symposiums among the Korean Stroke Society, Japan Stroke Society, and these organizations. We will also plan several symposiums on hot topics of stroke medicine.

We look forward to you all from Korea, Japan, and around the world joining us in September 2022. You will be absolutely satisfied with our exciting program.

Warm regards,

Kazunori Toyoda
