Deepening Friendships for the Future

On behalf of the Japan Stroke Society, we are delighted to invite you to the 12th Korea-Japan Joint Stroke Conference (KJJSC 2025), which will be held in Osaka in March 2025. After the long period of the “new-normal”, it has now been eight years since the Niigata 2017 that we have been able to welcome you all to Japan. Now, face-to-face academic exchanges have regained their former vigour, and we learned the importance of academic collaboration while confirming our friendship once again in Busan 2023. Under these circumstances, we have decided to hold the conference at the same time and place as STROKE 2025 that is the annual meeting of the Japan Stroke Society. This project aims to provide an opportunity for Korean participants to learn about Japanese academic activities, and for Japanese participants to benefit from easy access to international academic conferences. We hope that this event will be an opportunity to break down the barriers between the two countries and extend the friendship between the two to the next generation.
