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

As per its tradition, the scientific committee will ensure the high quality and diversity of the scientific programme, together with the accessibility of the meeting to MSc and PhD students. For the latter, an advantageous registration fee will be proposed. Moreover, a special career session will be organised with industrial and academic participants.

During the meeting the P. Ehrlich Lecture Award will be awarded to a researcher or a research team for his/her/their outstanding contribution to medicinal chemistry. Furthermore, the Pierre Fabre Award for Therapeutic Innovation will be attributed to a researcher having accomplished a decisive action or made a discovery contributing to a therapeutic innovation. In addition, a poster session will provide the opportunity for all participants to present their current results. “Best poster” prizes will also be attributed.

Iris Biotech  will be present at the RICT 2015 and we are looking forward to meet you at our booth.
