This symposium, unique in the SF Bay area, provides an ideal forum to meet and exchange ideas covering themes in chemical biology, synthesis, and computational chemistry among students, postdocs, and industrial chemists.
The one-day symposium will feature keynote addresses given by Gilead, Genentech, and Novartis as well as leading professors from the area and showcase research talks from graduate students, post-doctoral fellows, and industrial chemists. A poster session will also take place with presentations representing research conducted in both academic and industry laboratories.
This symposium, co-chaired by Richmond Sarpong, Professor of Chemistry at UC Berkeley, and Kevin Allan, Process Chemist at Gilead Sciences, promises to be an exciting and influential community building event for synthetic, medicinal, and computational chemists across the Bay Area.
