Young Research Fellows Meeting

Since 1994, the Young Research Fellows Meeting YRFM brings together each year about 300 young European scientists. This meeting gives the Young Fellows the opportunity to present their most recent results either through oral communications, flash presentations and/or posters. The topics presented cover all aspects of medicinal chemistry, chemical biology, chemoinformatics, SAR studies, ADMET, imaging,  physical  chemistry, biolabeling  and  diagnostic tools, drug vectorization, nanotechnologies, natural products, synthetic methodologies, etc... Senior and mid-career scientists, including the recipients of the Young Investigator in Medicinal Chemistry (Industry or Academia) provide inspiring talks. Along with scientific sessions, individual career sessions are organize to help the young fellows for their career.
