Simpozij pod nazivom "Peptide Chemistry Day" održat će se u srijedu 20. rujna 2023. na Sveučilištu u Zagrebu u zgradi Regionalnoga centra za razvoj poduzetničkih kompetencija za zemlje jugoistočne Europe - SEECEL na Kajzerici (Ulica Radoslava Cimermana 88, 10000 Zagreb).
Cilj simpozija je okupiti vrhunske znanstvenike i istraživače koji djeluju u različitim područjima znanosti o peptidima. Uz predstavljanje recentnih istraživačkih rezultata i najnovijih istraživanja, svrha okupljanja je potaknuti međusobnu suradnju i razmjenu kontakata. Posebice se pozivaju mladi znanstvenici i kolege te studenti da sudjeluju na ovom događanju.
Ovim simpozijem obilježava se 10. obljetnica Centra za istraživanje i prijenos znanja u biotehnologiji Sveučilišta u Zagrebu te neprekidno i kontinuirano multidisciplinarno istraživanje kemije biološki aktivnih peptida, posebice glikopeptida, peptidoglikanskoga monomera i adamantilpeptida.
Organizator simpozija je Sveučilište u Zagrebu, zajedno s Hrvatskim kemijskim društvom i Institutom Ruđer Bošković.
Simpozij sponzorira:
European Peptide Society
BICRO BIOCentre, Ltd.
Altium International d.o.o.
Kotizacija se ne plaća. Uz hrvatski, radni jezik simpozija je i engleski.
Rok za prijavu i predaju sažetaka je 14. rujna 2023.
