Hot Topics in Chemical Biology
DRA symposium
Chemical biology, the manipulation of biological systems using the products of synthetic chemistry, is a fast moving, constantly expanding field. Drug discovery has been particularly influenced by progress in chemical biology. We have attracted highly recognized speakers for an exciting symposium on the topic of chemical biology and drug discovery, Fan Liu (FMP-Berlin) offering state of the art proteomics, Tim Jenkins (DTU) will update us on AI-powered protein design, Stefan Vogel (KU) will describe novel nucleic acids oligos and their complexes with custom lipid membranes, and Paramjit Arora (NYU) leader in proteomimetics to inhibit protein-protein interactions.
