Chemical biology in drug discovery

Nature Publishing Group announces the third Nature Chemical Biology Symposium, Chemical Biology in Drug Discovery, to be held on 19 and 20 September 2009 at the Royal Sonesta Hotel, Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA.
Scientists in industry and academia seek new approaches for finding the next generation of therapeutics. The 2009 symposium will explore how chemical biology is opening up new avenues for identifying therapeutic targets and discovering small molecule drugs. This two-day meeting will address the following topics, across a range of diseases:
Cell-based screening and target deconvolution
Targeting pathways and systems
Expanding druggable chemical space
Expanding druggable targets
The organizers are Paul Workman (The Institute of Cancer Research, UK); Giulio Superti-Furga (Center for Molecular Medicine, Austria); Brian Shoichet (University of California, San Francisco); and Joanne Kotz (Nature Chemical Biology). The application deadline is 22 May 2009, and the deadline for submission of abstracts is 30 June 2009.
