CPhI worldwide 2015

October 13th - 15th, 2015
Feria de Madrid, Spain

Join us in Paris for CPhI Worldwide 2015, the world's leading pharmaceutical networking event, co-located with ICSE, P-MEC and InnoPack.

CPhI Worldwide hosts 2,500 exhibitors and 35,000 attendees from 140 countries.

Meet face-to-face with international pharmaceutical companies, stay informed about the latest industry trends and remain one step ahead of a constantly changing pharmaceutical market.

New: Guanidino-Glycine

Visit our Glycine section and find a series of amino acid derivatives, where oxazole is the characteristic structural element carrying carboxy and amino function.

New: Oxazole expanded Glycines

Visit our Glycine section and find a series of amino acid derivatives, where oxazole is the characteristic structural element carrying carboxy and amino function.

New: Oligo Glycine – Linker

Oligo-glycines are either flexible linkers or form well defined rigid substructures. We offer a variety of oligo-glycines as building blocks which can easily be introduced into any molecule.

NGlyO – for beta sheet formation

Surprising behavior of NXO-peptides.
It is a significant property of peptides that oxalo-retro azapeptides have the same donor and acceptor distances and properties for hydrogen bridge formation as a tripeptide fragment and therefore induce beta-sheet formation at this position.

NEW Hydrazone Resin

A new hydrazone resin enables a convenient way to synthesize peptide hydrazides for Hydrazone Ligation Technique and Native Chemical Ligation (NCL).

5th Int. CeBiTec Research Conference

September 20th - 23rd, 2015
Center for Interdisciplinary Research
(ZiF), Bielefeld University, Germany

The Center for Biotechnology (CeBiTec) of Bielefeld University cordially invites you to attend the 5^th International Bielefeld-CeBiTec Research Conference on "Drug Conjugates in Directed Therapy”.

CeBiTec Research Conferences are annual events with thematic focus on a challenging topic in the life sciences. The 2015 conference "Drug Conjugates for Directed Therapy" is being organized by the Marie Skłodowska-Curie European Training Network (ETN) MAGICBULLET, which is currently being funded by the EU in the Horizon 2020 Framework Programme for Research and Innovation.

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.
