The Anglo-Swiss Symposium on Phenotypic screening – target Identification Approaches

The meeting is being organised jointly by the BMCS of the Royal Society of Chemistry and the DMCCB of the Swiss Chemical Society, together with representatives from Syngenta and Roche on the organising committee.

The majority of drugs acting by novel mechanisms are identified in phenotypic screening assays. However, the subsequent identification of the relevant targets is frequently a challenging and tedious exercise. Recent advances in the field have shown promise for the more efficient execution of target identification and this symposium brings together experienced scientists in this field. If you are working on or interested in phenotypic screening, this symposium will allow you to exchange ideas and experiences, and to understand the critical issues. It will be attended by scientists from academia and different industries (pharma, crop sciences) and promises to be a highly stimulating meeting.
