The event will be organised in connection with the XXVIII EFMC International Symposium on Medicinal Chemistry (EFMC-ISMC 2024).
This short symposium has the aim of creating a network of young European investigators stimulating young European investigators to share their scientific work with peers and inspiring leaders in the field creating competition and excellence within Europe by selecting the European Champion in Medicinal Chemistry and Chemical Biology. The program will include keynote lectures given by inspiring leaders in the field, with ample time for interaction with the speakers oral communications by invited prize winners from national young medicinal chemist meetings in Europe, flash poster presentations selected from submitted abstracts, a poster session open to any young researcher submitting an abstract, an exhibition prizes.
