The FBLD2008 conference was held in San Diego in February 2008 and attracted over 250 delegates. This successor conference will provide an update on the latest experimental methods and results from fragment-based methods, but also provide a forum for in-depth discussion of how best to use fragment information in ligand discovery.
In addition, there will be a one day workshop on Sunday 20th September:
"An overview of Fragment-Based Drug Discovery" - providing an introduction and update on the ideas and practise behind modern fragment-based discovery methods.
The conference is organised in collaboration with the MGMS
There are major roadworks taking place near the venue, please see the travel page for details if this might affect you.
