Description
This 3-day conference and exhibition has been designed to fill a gap in the conference field, providing a forum where industry and academia can meet to discuss new synthetic methodology and chiral chemistry, and how practical this methodology is from an industrial viewpoint.
Industry rarely devises new synthetic methods to perform each step in the synthetic route but relies on using and modifying methods which have been discovered within academia. It is therefore essential that the industrial chemist, whether in early research and discovery or process chemistry, is aware of the latest developments in synthetic organic chemistry, so that efficient and practical methods for synthesising new molecules are devised.
Emphasis will be on the state of the art and will provide directions for future work. Industrial chemical case studies where key reactions have been used, either in discovery or in development, will be provided.
The conference proceedings for the event will contain all the lecture presentations with key references to the current literature and will provide a valuable source of data for the future.
Sunday 13 May Monday 14 May - Conference Day One Tuesday 15 May - Conference Day Two Wednesday 16 May - Conference Day Three "It was a wonderful and extremely enriching experience. Perfect mix of talks from academia and industry." Michigan State University "It was a highly successful and enjoyable meeting. A lot of interesting chemistry was presented and there was plenty of opportunity to network with colleagues from academia and industry. You selected a perfect venue - a nice hotel situated in the heart of a very interesting city." Nycomed GmbH "Great conference. I have enjoyed the talks, the exhibition and the networking. Great success!" Actelion Pharma "Very well organised with an excellent line up of speakers. The diversity of topics was also very well done." Eli Lilly "Excellent! I thoroughly enjoyed it. Good group of people, interesting science." Piramal Healthcare "Great conference with very interesting lectures!" KRKA

PANEL DISCUSSION SESSION Flow Chemistry - What is all the Fuss About? Flow Chemistry is a hot topic in the Process Development Laboratories, so does Flow have a place in Discovery and Research too? Members of the panel will discuss the merits of Flow Chemistry and how it could be adopted earlier. Topics we think may be of interest include: What do chemists need to know? Do organic chemists understand reaction kinetics? How do I get started?
