The 88th Annual Scientific Meeting of the Japanese Circulation Society (JCS)

The 88th Annual Scientific Meeting of the Japanese Circulation Society (JCS) is organized by The Japanese Circulation Society (JCS) and will be held from Mar 08 - 10, 2024 at Kobe International Conference Center, Kobe, Hyogo, Japan.

Description:
The 88th Annual Scientific Meeting of the Japanese Circulation Society (JCS) will be held over the three days from Friday, March 8 to Sunday, March 10, 2024 at the Kobe International Conference Center, Kobe International Exhibition Hall, and Kobe Portopia Hotel. This is the 88th year since the JCS was established in 1936, since when it has grown massively and now numbers over 27,000 regular members. It is a great honor for me to be appointed President of an Annual Meeting with such a history.

The Annual Meeting is a highly significant occasion at which a large number of members can gather together, gain knowledge of cardiology, and boost their networking. Since 2019, however, the impact of COVID-19 has required that it be held mostly online, as well as necessitating many changes and reductions in scale, and this has been a major hindrance both for networking between members and for opportunities for young doctors to present their work. As it now seems that COVID-19 is finally being vanquished, with its categorization under the Infectious Disease Control Law revised and infection prevention measures relaxed, we are going ahead with preparations for this Annual Meeting in Kobe to enable face-to-face presentations and lively discussion.

Additional details will be posted as soon as information is available.
