9th Peptoid Summit

August, 6th - 7th, 2015
Molecular Foundry, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory
Berkeley, CA, USA

The Peptoid Summit is a friendly gathering of students, post-docs, and PI’s investigating new directions in bio-inspired polymer research.  Peptoids are a highly designable polymer system, allowing unprecedented control over the their exact chemical structure.  This is leading to advances in a wide range of fields, from biomedicine to materials science.  Our community is growing and we welcome new investigators.  Come join the discussion and help plan the future of this exciting field!  The Molecular Foundry at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory is proud to host this event.

RICT 2015 - 51st International Conference on Medicinal Chemistry

July 1st - 3rd, 2015
Université d’Avignon et des Pays de Vaucluse
Avignon, France

RICT 2015 - the 51st edition of the International Conference on Medicinal Chemistry - is expected to gather 550-600 scientists from around the world, with a majority of scientists coming from Europe.

The scientific programme, which will include over 25 plenary lectures by internationally well-known scientists, will focus on "Drug Discovery and Selection - Understanding Targets and Mechanisms", covering the main stages of modern drug discovery:

• Revealing Biological Mechanisms
• Mechanisms of Resistance
• Translational Approaches
• Integrative Approaches
• Understanding of the Molecular Space
• Case Studies

Peptoids - Peptide Backbone Derivatisation

Alkylating the Nitrogen of an amide bond results in peptoid structures, leading to conformational restrains, like N-methylation and allows backbone derivatisation. Applications already have been published with Cilengitide, Piscidin 1, and MC4 receptor agonist.

• BIO Exhibtion

6th EuChem for Life Sciences

June 10th - 12th, 2015
Reitoria of Universidade Nova de Lisboa
Campus de Campolide, Lisboa, Portugal

The 6th European Conference on Chemistry for Life Sciences (6th ECCLS) will be held in Lisbon, Portugal, in June 10-12, 2015.
Lisbon meeting will be sixth in a series – after Rimini (2005), Wroclaw (2007), Frankfurt (2009), Budapest (2011) and Barcelona (2013) – and will put together scientists from different backgrounds in order to facilitate translation of knowledge between chemistry and biology.
This conference is an activity of the EuCheMS (European Association for Chemical and Molecular Sciences) Division of Chemistry in Life Sciences.

Bioheterocycles 2015 - XVI International Conference on Heterocycles in Bioorganic Chemistry

June 8th - 11th, 2015
University of Lorraine, Campus du Saulcy
Metz, France

The Bioheterocycles 2015 - XVI International Conference on Heterocycles in Bioorganic Chemistry is a continuation of the series started by Professor Henk van der Plas in 1980. Since that time the boundaries of bio-organic chemistry have been expanded significantly and we feel it is time to learn about the latest progress in the field. The objective is to facilitate fruitful interaction of young scientists with internationally recognised speakers selected with the help of the members of the Scientific Committee.
