Important notice
As of August 2, 2022
The 81st Annual Meeting of the Japanese Cancer Association has decided on the format of the meeting in view of the situation of the spread of the new coronavirus.
We had been hoping and trying hard to make JCA2022 a lively event through direct face-to-face discussions and new encounters. However, Japan is currently in its worst situation yet regarding Covid-19 and social events (parties, etc.) will basically be canceled from the viewpoint of infection control.
Moreover, due to the extremely strict infection control measures and behavioral restrictions during their stay in Japan and entry into Japan, we have concluded that we are unable to invite oral/poster presenters and participants from abroad considering your safety and government regulations while speakers/chairs/participants in Japan will come to the venue.
We regret to inform you that the oral presenters will be asked to submit pre-recorded videos and poster presenters will be asked to submit the poster data to display at the venue.
*Invited speakers will be notified individually on how to participate.
When it comes to VISA and ERFS:
-We unfortunately cannot be your VISA sponsor
-We cannot provide invitation letters (for VISA application) to oral/poster presenters
-You may come to the venue without JCA2022’s help, but we cannot be responsible for any of your activities in Japan even if you actually participate to JCA2022

*Invited speakers will be notified.
Thank you all for your understanding and cooperation on this hardest decision to make. We sincerely hope this situation gets better soon and we will see you at the next JCA meeting.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and sincerely ask for your understanding.
