Conferences and Meetings on Biochemistry and Medicinal Chemistry, Toxicology

Scientific Update Ltd.

Beilstein-Institut

Every day, enormous amounts of experimental and theoretical data are becoming available in the diverse research fields. For example, in chemistry the chemical space is explored, in physics the fundamental structures of particles that make up the world we know are examined, and in biology the paradigm is studied that leads from the DNA to structure, function and regulation.

Assuming the requirements for both high quality and access to data are met, the perspectives for the computational approach are promising but also raise a number of questions which will be addressed in the symposium.

The Royal Society of Chemistry

The school is designed for graduate and post-doctoral chemists with 1-5 years’ experience in the field of drug research. Drug discovery is an interdisciplinary subject so delegates from biological or computational backgrounds will benefit from attendance at the school. In addition, final year PhD students from pharmaceutical or organic chemistry contemplating a career in drug discovery are also encouraged to attend.

The Royal Society of Chemistry Medicinal Chemistry Residential School will cover topics of interest to drug discovery researchers, helping to increase understanding of the factors governing modern drug discovery from the initial concept through to translational science and intellectual property. Established since 1981, our Residential School has trained many of the world’s leading medicinal chemists working in the pharmaceutical industry and academic research institute.

MBP’2022 will cover a wide range of topics and disciplines around peptides and metals, from basic research to various applications. The idea of the initiation of this first conference is to gather academic and industrial scientists together, who are normally dispatched in different fields. We expect a strong synergic effect and an innovative atmosphere by mixing skills and disciplines, as techniques, methods, chemical compounds etc. from one discipline or field might be of high interest for another field and vice-versa. Thus, we aim to cover methodologies and applications from various disciplines, including food, nutrition, chemistry, microbiology, cellular biology, biology in general, catalysis, environment, origin of life and evolution, milk products, imaging, models, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, health, materials etc. Peptides include synthetic peptides, expressed peptides, isolated from natural sources, peptidomimetics etc. and all type of metals (essential, toxic etc) present in form of ions, metal-ligand complexes, nanoparticles and so on.

EMBL

Microfluidic tools have made recent biological and biomedical research leaps possible. At the physics, engineering, chemistry and biology interface, innovation in microfluidic approaches has positively impacted areas as diverse as nucleotide sequencing, functional genomics, single-cell and single-molecule studies, and biomedical diagnostics. Many of these applications – including next-generation sequencing devices – have been revolutionised by miniaturisation, paving the way for global gene analysis and hence transforming biology. Working on the pico- to nanoliter scale not only allows a high degree of parallelisation, but importantly offers superb spatiotemporal control. Small objects such as cells, or even discrete parts thereof, can be exposed to unique conditions, facilitating entirely novel approaches to inquiry in modern biology and chemistry. The EMBL Microfluidics Conference brings together top researchers and emerging research leaders to spark scientific exchange and create community. Topics spanning from fundamental physics & chemistry to device design and nascent biological applications will be presented, which should be of interest to everyone from experts in microfluidic design to users of the next-generation of microfluidic tools, and from academic scholars and trainees to industry colleagues.

This meeting will be organized and supported by the Grenoble Institute of Metals in Biology.

The European Biological Inorganic Chemistry Conference (EuroBIC) series is one of the leading international meetings on Bioinorganic chemistry, associated with the international learned Society of Biological Inorganic Chemistry. With the participation of renowned researchers from all over the world, EuroBIC provides a unique platform to present and discuss the latest developments in all areas at the interface between inorganic chemistry and life sciences. All topics in the field of bioinorganic chemistry are welcome at the conference, including broader emerging areas where it interfaces with nanoscience, synthetic biology and supramolecular chemistry, as examples.

This conference is a follow-up to the successful 2nd Molecules Medicinal Chemistry Symposium—Facing Novel Challenges in Drug Discovery (MMCS2019), held in May 2019 in Barcelona, Spain. This turned out to be a very fruitful forum that delved into numerous topics. The excellent atmosphere was created by the presence of more than 190 attendees from 30 countries. Encouraged by the great success of the MMCS2019, the three-day MMCS2022 will continue to address a large audience and a wide variety of current medicinal chemistry topics. The MMCS2022 will be organized into a number of thematic sessions on the medicinal chemistry of particularly challenging diseases, novel and revisited drug discovery approaches, and medicinal chemistry stories about recently implemented projects in areas not covered in the other sessions—target and hit identification, hit-to-lead optimization, the tuning of physicochemical and pharmacokinetic properties, preclinical and clinical development, etc.

Group for the Promotion of Pharmaceutical chemistry in Academia (GP2A)

The Group for the Promotion of Pharmaceutical chemistry in Academia (GP2A) is a member-led network of academic medicinal chemists working in universities and research institutes in Europe.Founded in 1992, as the Groupement des Pharmacochimistes de l’Arc Atlantique (GP2A) by medicinal chemists working within Schools of Pharmacy near the western coast of Europe (the “Atlantic Arc”), it has rapidly expanded and currently includes academic members from France, Spain, Germany, Portugal, Ireland and the United Kingdom.

The XXVll EFMC International Symposium on Medicinal Chemistry is organised by the Société de Chimie Thérapeutique (SCT), on behalf of the European Federation for Medicinal Chemistry and Chemical Biology (EFMC).

The EFMC is the main organisation for the European Medicinal Chemistry and Chemical Biology community, with 26 member societies and about 7.500 members. Its biennial EFMC-ISMC is a key symposium in the field of medicinal chemistry and drug discovery and it traditionally attracts around 1.000 participants both from industry and academia. The most recent EFMC-ISMC meeting took place in tSlovenia (Ljubljana, 2018), while the edition initially planned for Basel, Switzerland in 2020 has been run as a Virtual Event in 2021.

The 2022 programme will cover advances in drug discovery in major therapeutic areas, including bacterial and viral infections, with a particular attention to current and emerging viral pandemics, but also neurodegenerative and cardiovascular diseases, rare diseases and cancer. EFMC-ISMC 2022 will also feature most recent advances in new technologies such as the exploitation of RNA as drug target, artificial intelligence in drug discovery, natural products-based drug discovery, DNA encoded libraries applications and the development of covalent drugs, PROTACs and molecular glues. Innovative approaches in medicinal chemistry will be included such as the development of immunomodulating compounds or the application of affinity selection – mass spectrometry for drug discovery. In a series of dedicated sessions, the interface between chemical biology and drug discovery will be highlighted, including topics such as in vivo chemistry for target discovery and validation, molecular imaging, and photochemical approaches. Finally, particular emphasis will again be put on first time disclosures and recent highlights in medicinal chemistry.

EMBO

The conference sets the stage for the dissemination and exchange of new developments in diverse, hot fields within chemical biology.
