1st SCT Workshop on Biologically Relevant Molecular Diversity

April 4th, 2013 | Maison de la Chimie, Paris, France

The French Society of Medicinal Chemistry (SCT) is pleased to announce the first edition of the SCT Workshop on “Biologically Relevant Molecular Diversity, scheduled to be held on April 4th in Paris, France.

This one-day meeting is organised in addition to the 3 other SCT events, namely the annual “International Conference on Medicinal Chemistry” (RICT) (July 3-5, 2013, Nice), the “Young Researchers Days” (February 2013), and the autumn thematic one-day meeting, to better meet the needs of the SCT academic and industrial partners.

The aim of this first SCT workshop is to provide medicinal chemists with state of the art methods and best practices in molecular diversity analysis of chemical libraries and compound collections. The workshop is meant to present and to discuss methods and strategies to analyse and optimise the molecular diversity of libraries covering library design, library comparison, and compound selection for the optimisation of compound collections in order to increase the probability of identifying high quality hits.

Eight opinion leaders, all experts in the field, have been invited to give their thoughts and presentations about diversity, with an emphasis on the molecular aspects involved in the interactions between molecules and biological targets.

MAISON DE LA CHIMIE
The Maison de la Chimie (the House of Chemistry) is one of the oldest conference centers in France, located in the heart of the 7th district of Paris. It is a unique historical site, near Boulevard Saint-Germain and close to the French National Assembly and the major ministries, where the charm of the 18th century and the sobriety of the thirties blend together in perfect harmony.
