| Professor Akihiko Ishijima’s Final Lecture |
Professor Akihiko Ishijima’s Final Lecture will be held in the afternoon of Wednesday, March 10, 2027, during the Flagellar Meeting 2026.
The scientific program of the meeting will therefore be temporarily suspended during the lecture. Although the Final Lecture would ordinarily be organized as a separate event, it will be held during the meeting due to scheduling and logistical considerations.
We apologize for any inconvenience this arrangement may cause and sincerely appreciate your understanding.
The reception for the Flagellar Meeting 2026 is scheduled to be held jointly with the reception following the Final Lecture. We hope that it will provide an enjoyable opportunity for scientific exchange and interaction among all participants.
Participation in both the Final Lecture and the reception is entirely optional. Participants are welcome to attend according to their schedules and interests.
Please note that the Final Lecture will be delivered in Japanese only.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
