28th SCI Annual Review Meeting – New Developments and Applications of Organic Synthesis

Organised by:

SCI’s Young Chemists’ Panel

SCI, London, UK

Registration Closed

This event is no longer available for registration.

Synopsis

The 28th Annual Review Meeting – New Developments and Applications of Organic Synthesis, organised by SCI's Young Chemists’ Panel, will address key areas of contemporary synthetic organic chemistry. An exciting line-up of leading early career academics will deliver a series of review lectures covering a range of topics, including heterocyclic ring synthesis, protein interactions with small molecules, supramolecular systems, and boron reagents. The meeting will deliver a comprehensive overview of the material, highlight new methods and introduce (potential) industrial applications. The review lectures will be supported by two plenary speakers: Prof Edward Andreson from the University of Oxford and Prof Nicholas Turner from the University of Manchester.


Attendees

The meeting is ideally suited to those working in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology or agrochemical industries who want to develop their knowledge in key areas. It is also aimed at those in academia, particularly graduates and post-graduates with a background in synthesis and catalysis. An electronic PDF booklet will be provided to all participants containing the lecture materials as well as extensive literature references.
