APASL STC 2026 Kumamoto 開催について
このたびの熊本地震によりご心配をおかけしておりますが、熊本市内は震源地から離れており、地震による影響は限定的です。APASL STC 2026 Kumamotoは予定通り開催いたします。
現在、航空便・九州新幹線とも通常通り運行しており、会場ホテルにも大きな被害はありません。

Important Notice Regarding APASL STC 2026 Kumamoto
Dear Colleagues,
Following the recent earthquake in Kumamoto, we understand that some participants may have concerns regarding travel to Kumamoto.
Kumamoto City is located away from the main epicentral area and has sustained only limited impact from the earthquake. We are therefore pleased to confirm that APASL STC 2026 Kumamoto will be held as scheduled.
Flights and Shinkansen services to Kumamoto are operating normally, and the conference venue has sustained no significant damage and remains fully operational.
We look forward to welcoming you to Kumamoto and encourage you to proceed with your travel plans with confidence.
Thank you very much for your continued support, and we look forward to seeing you in Kumamoto.
Warm regards,
Yasuhito Tanaka, MD, PhD
President, APASL STC 2026 Kumamoto
