The Early Career MedChem Workshop is a pre-meeting workshop taking place on the Sunday afternoon before the 20th SCI/RSC Medicinal Chemistry Symposium, Churchill College, Cambridge, Sunday 8 - Wednesday 11 September 2019.

It is aimed at early career (up to 5 years’ experience) medicinal chemists. Registration for this event will be at no additional cost to the main meeting.

The workshop will consist of a team-based exercise around a virtual medicinal chemistry programme and will offer participants:

• Training in advanced medicinal chemistry
• Testing out leadership/decision making skills
• Networking between potential future leaders of different organisations
• Introductions of possible future collaborators from pharma, CRO, charity and SME sectors
• Opportunity for informal interaction with experienced medicinal chemists workshop facilitators who will be open to questions around their own experiences
• Attendance at the full 20th SCI/RSC Medicinal Chemistry Symposium including lectures on a full range of drug targets, key enabling processes and technologies

Feedback from previous events has been excellent for this unique learning experience.
