The YRFM Young Research Fellows Meeting is an initiative of the French Medicinal Chemistry Society (SCT). The 24th edition gathered 250 young participants from Europe. The 25th edition will take place at the University of Orléans (Hall Sully, department DEG, Law, Economics and Management) during three days (March, 5-7th, 2018).
This meeting brings together young European scientists (PhD students, post-doctoral fellows and young academic/industrial confirmed researchers) and gives them the opportunity to present and discuss the latest innovations and future trends in Medicinal Chemistry.
The topics presented cover all aspects of research in medicinal chemistry: the research and validation of biological targets of therapeutic interest, screening, design, optimization and selection of drug candidates, chemical biology, medicinal chemistry, pharmacokinetics, metabolism and toxicity (ADME-T: absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, toxicity).
We are delighted and honored to have world-class medicinal chemists as speakers:
- Dr A. Ates, UCB Pharma , Belgium
- Pr D. Cantillo, University of Graz , Austria
- Dr F. Marion, Pierre Fabre Laboratories, France
