ADMET 2019

Organised by:

SCI's Young Chemists' Panel

London, UK

Registration Closed

This event is no longer available for registration.

Synopsis

This is the 8th one day event organised by SCI's Young Chemists’ Panel to highlight the challenges associated with ADMET (Adsorption, Distribution, Metabolism, Elimination and Toxicity) in Medicinal Chemistry. The aim of the day is to provide participants with a practical understanding of ADMET parameters, how to diagnose common ADMET problems and how to improve compound design to overcome these problems.

This event runs back-to-back with What a Chemist Needs to Know About Biology 1: In Vitro Biology.


Attendees
The event is aimed at organic chemists (graduate or PhD) working in a pharmaceutical research environment and students thinking about a career in this sector. Participants are provided with a booklet containing the material presented, worked examples and literature references.
