Hungarian-German-Italian-Polish Joint Meeting on Medicinal Chemistry,
2-6 September 2001, Budapest, Hungary
> Back to Calendar
In recent decades, the practice of medicinal chemistry has developed
from an empirical science, involving organic synthesis of new compounds
and based largely on modification of structures of known activity, to
a more logical and less intuitive approach. Medicinal chemistry has,
therefore, become a collaborative effort between a variety of chemists,
biologists, spectroscopists, geneticists, and biotechnologists. On the
basis of the success of the Italian-Hungarian- Polish Joint Meeting
on Medicinal Chemistry held 28 September-1 October 1999 in Giardini
Naxos, it was decided to organize the next meeting in Budapest, Hungary,
with the involvement of Germany. Focal points of the conference cover
the most important areas of medicinal chemistry from chemical, biological,
genetic, and biotechnological points of view.
Interplay among medicinal chemists working in different fields and
different countries will certainly lead to new collaborations with new
scientific innovations and achievements, as well as to the encouragement
of young researchers working in academic and industrial fields. Also,
topics covered during the meeting and the presence of prominent scientists
will provide strong support and stimulus for medicinal chemistry knowledge
in developing countries such as Hungary and Poland. Approximately 250
scientific participants from around the world are expected to attend
this meeting.
