Dear Prof. XXX,

My name is YYYY, an investigator at RIKEN, I’m also in charge of coordinating seminars in our Division. ZZZ kindly informed us that you could visit RIKEN on October 30th and give a seminar. Thank you so much for making the time and effort to visit us, we’re really excited to host you. Unfortunately, I will be away on that day, but I know my colleagues would be excited to hear your talk, there are few labs on our campus that work on different aspects of T cells  (mainly in mouse) as well.

Thank you also for sending the abstract already. Is the content of the attached abstract still ok, to be used for the announcement?
