It's a small world!

The second virtual BioSolveIT DrugSpace Symposium revolves around the little gems of drug discovery: small molecules and fragments!
Experts from academia, the pharmaceutical industry, and academic institutions disclose current developments and unprecedented innovations to tackle future challenges in drug discovery. The symposium features interdisciplinary cross-talks between computational approaches, medicinal chemistry cases, crystallography, synthesis, small compound evolution, and the handling of molecular collections speedily.

Medicinal chemists, decision makers, representatives of any pharmaceutical- and medicine-related business, undergraduate and Ph.D. students, researchers, and everybody interested in future technologies and state-of-the-art drug development — you are cordially invited to participate in this virtual event. We will frame the Symposium with a virtual mixer in Gathertown so that also smaller circles can discuss, meet, and have a drink aside the presentations.

The DrugSpace Symposium takes place at 24-25^th May 2022, and the registration is free-of-charge.

Symposium Workshop

To celebrate the event and the upcoming releases of our major platforms SeeSAR and infiniSee, we will feature an interactive workshop in our rebuilt Gathertown virtual office rooms.
The workshop starts on the second day of the symposium, 25^th May 2022 at 3:00 pm (CEST) and will cover fragment-based ligand design (FBLD) with BioSolveIT applications.
Participants can use this opportunity for networking and discussing the topics of the Symposium.
Registration is not required but the space is limited — first come, first served principle. Please make sure to switch off any VPN connection to avoid connecting issues with Gathertown.

First-Time BioSolveIT Disclosures

To celebrate the fragment-focussed DrugSpace Symposium 2022, we will announce powerful additions to our two major platforms SeeSAR and infiniSee that will augment every fragment-based drug discovery project.
Stay excited!
