Call for Abstracts: Peptide Chemistry Conference 2012
Friday November 2 2012 - Tuesday November 6 2012 Xcaret, Mexico
The interest of pharmaceutical companies for peptides is increasing enormously in the last decade. There are several reasons for that. In first place, the number of the so-called small molecules accepted for the corresponding agencies are declining. In this sense, pharmaceutical are looking more to biological based drugs. Furthermore, the advances in fields of formulation, drug delivery technology and chemical modifications, have rekindled the interest in peptides as APIs.
This would not be possible without the concurrence of strong peptide chemistry. The development of new resins for the solid-phase methodology, coupling reagents, orthogonal protecting groups, and synthetic strategies are being allowed the rapid and efficient synthesis of small and large peptides for research and, then, the multi-ton preparation of the API based peptides.
This Zing conference will be totally devoted into the latest developments in peptide chemistry. In addition to the parameters outlined above, the following topics will be discussed:
Synthesis of building blocks
use of microwave and other technologies
syntheses of foldamers, peptide conjugates, and peptides for nanotechnologies
preparation of peptide libraries
chemical ligation for protein synthesis
syntheses of complex cyclic peptide of natural origin and peptide mimetics
industrial synthesis of peptides
Attendees from the academia and the industry as well Ph.D. students and post-doctoral fellows will fulfill an unique atmosphere around the peptide world.
Abstract submission Talk abstract deadline: Monday June 25 2012
Poster abstract deadline: Sunday September 2 2012

Call for Abstracts: European Molecular Biology Laboratory Conference Series: Chemical Biology 2012
EMBL Heidelberg, Germany Wednesday 26 September - Saturday 29 September 2012
Abstract submission deadline is 19 July 2012.
We only accept online abstract submissions.
Why You Should Attend
Chemical Biology is a quickly growing highly interdisciplinary field, which investigates biological questions by using chemical strategies and tools. It has emerged to become an important and central discipline by itself complementing areas such as medicinal chemistry, pharmacology, cell biology, structural biology and biochemistry. Researchers in Chemical Biology find themselves at home in the chemistry and the biology lab and fuse the experimental possibilities that both have to offer.
Aims of event
The biennial series aims to give an overview on the current status of the fast evolving field and an outlook to where the field is heading. The conference will provide a unique opportunity for scientists using diverse research approaches and methods to come together and to network. It is structured to enhance exchange and discussions between researchers, for the benefit of their own research as well as for the progress of the field.
Topics
The conference will cover a broad area of approaches and methods used in Chemical Biology including:
Molecular imaging and switching tools
Computational and structural approaches
Innovative drug design approaches
Chemical genetics and high throughput methods
Novel synthetic methods as applied to biological questions
Chemical protein engineering
Chemical cell biology
History of Conference
The conference Chemical Biology 2010 was held at the new Advanced training Centre at EMBL Heidelberg. Due to the large success of the initial conference in 2008, Chemical Biology 2010 and the following conferences in the biennial series became a member of the family of EMBO-funded conferences. With about 30 invited speakers, 20 oral presentations chosen from the abstracts, 180 posters and over 300 participants, the 2010 event was a truly impressive success.
