Synopsis

Cell surface transporters play a key role in human health and disease, both through their impact on drug disposition and as therapeutic targets in their own right. This third meeting in the series will feature talks on transporter structural biology, the impact of transporters on ADME and biodistribution, transporters as therapeutic targets and other aspects of transporters relevant to drug discovery and development


Attendees
Bringing together leading exponents in the field from industry and academia, the meeting will appeal to medicinal chemists, DMPK scientists and other workers interested in the impact of transporters on human health.
