Abstract

The Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) was founded in 1926, and the JOA has become one of the largest societies for musculoskeletal disorders in the world. The Annual Research Meeting of the JOA was established in 1973, and the meeting has been a forum in which Japanese orthopaedic surgeons, who perform basic research, can disseminate the results of their work. The contents of the meeting have improved with each meeting. This year, the meeting has reached its 38th year. The 38<sup>th</sup> Annual Research Meeting of the JOA will be held October 19-20, 2023 at the Tsukuba Science City. The thesis for the meeting is "IMAGINE THE FUTURE ", which is the slogan of the University of Tsukuba. At the meeting in Tsukuba, we look forward to having stimulating discussions with many orthopaedic surgeons regarding the future of orthopaedic science and clinical practice.
