The RSC Chemical Biology and Bio-organic Group Postgraduate Symposium aims to provide a platform for early career scientists from a broad range of chemical biology backgrounds to come together, share their work and discuss the latest research. In addition to our excellent plenary speaker there will also be opportunities for young researchers to present their work through short talks and posters.
