We’re excited to announce three upcoming RSC Medicinal Chemistry Desktop Seminars, featuring winners of the 2019 and 2020 RSC Medicinal Chemistry Emerging Investigator Lectureship.
RSC Desktop Seminars are an initiative from the Royal Society of Chemistry to bring cutting-edge research directly to you! Now, more than ever, there is a crucial need for sharing research, and we’re pleased to present alongside Editorial Board members and Associate Editors, two RSC Medicinal Chemistry Emerging Investigator Lectureships in a digital format for the first time ever.
These seminars will cover a wide range of medicinal chemistry topics, from targeting infectious diseases to techniques for candidate identification and the chemistry of drug design. Be sure to register for each seminar individually at the links below!
