	Eligibility of Abstract Submission The office of the 2nd Joint Meeting of ESCHM-ISCH-ISB 2021 asks to submit abstracts for both Free Communication and Symposium under the following criteria: 1 All participants must register for the 2nd Joint Meeting of ESCHM-ISCH-ISB 2021 and pay the registration fee through the website. (https://eschmischisb.confit.atlas.jp/login). 2 The abstract submission is free. However, at least one of the authors (the first author, presenting author or senior author) require the registration process and attending the Joint Meeting. We therefore recommend submitters of abstracts to register for the Joint Meeting at the time of abstract submission. 3 The abstract content must fit into one of this Joint Meeting Abstract Review Categories for both Free Communication and Symposium.
	Basic Information on Abstract Submission 1 Abstracts can only be submitted online through this Joint Meeting website (https://eschmischisb.confit.atlas.jp/login). Electronic submission works optimally with Microsoft Internet Explorer 10.0 or higher, Mozilla Firefox 5.0 or higher and Chrome 16 and Apple Safari 3 or higher. 2 Submitted abstracts should be prepared by following instruction below. 3 The first author listed for each abstract serves as the presenting author and as the primary contact for all correspondence regarding the abstract handling, unless otherwise informed to the secretariat (eschm-isch-isb2021@congre.co.jp). 4 As ethical consideration, all animal and human studies must be approved by the corresponding institutional review boards and must comply with the guiding principles for experimental procedures or the Declaration of Helsinki of the World Medical Association. 5 Joint Meeting office and the secretariat do not correspond on the reasons of acceptance/rejection of an abstract. 6 Poster presentation is digital in the 2nd Joint Meeting of ESCHM-ISCH-ISB 2021. Please refer to the instruction of ePoster.
	Please read the following instructions before submitting abstract. 1 The first author is responsible for ensuring that all co-authors have read and agreed the content of their abstract. The first author is responsible for the accuracy of the abstract, because changes of abstracts cannot be made after the deadline for abstract submission. Please make sure all the information including co-authors' name and affiliation are registered correctly before the deadline. 2 Before you submit an abstract, we strongly recommend you to write your own abstract with other text files in advance and to copy and paste the text on the online abstract box of the website, instead of writing the abstract directly on the submission page. This will enable you to proofread all entries and make final changes before you submit them. Main text of an abstract should be less than 2,000 characters (about 230-250 words). 3 Your e-mail address is required for online abstract submission. Please make sure your e-mail address is valid so that we may contact you. 4 Abstracts can be re-edited and modified until submission deadline. Therefore, the submitter will be required to keep the user account in the electronic online abstract submission system. 5 Confirmations and notifications of acceptance/rejection will be e-mailed to the registered address. If the e-mail address is not that of the presenting author, please make sure the first author receives the messages.
	Notes for Abstract Submission 1 Online abstract submission has four parts, ‘Plenary Lecture’, ‘Keynote Lecture’, ‘Symposium’ and ‘Free Communication’. Please make sure that you select the correct part. 2 Some sessions in Symposium may accept abstract for Free Communication depending on the content and quality of the abstract. Please confirm the final program of the Joint Meeting for all the authors of abstracts. 3 In the case of Abstract for Free Communication, submitters are required to indicate their preference for oral or poster presentation. However, the decision of the presentation style is made by the scientific program committee. 4 The scientific program committee has all rights to publish the accepted abstract in the proceeding. 5 Any technical questions regarding the submission process should be directed to  eschm-isch-isb2021@congre.co.jp.
