Change of Day 1 for Abstract Submission

To whom this may concern;

Because of the situation of a novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) in and out of Japan, we will change the date for starting the abstract submission of the 58^th Annual Meeting of the Biophysical Society of Japan from 14^th April to 21^st April.
Right now, there are so many uncertain factors involved, and hence further changes may be taken place. We appreciate your understanding of such situations.

Since the next board meeting of the Biophysical Society of Japan will be held on 18^th April, we will decide the future plan based on the discussions and decisions in the meeting.
