A Virtual Symposium
Synopsis
The RSC-BMCS (Biological and Medicinal Chemistry Sector) will host its fourteenth postgraduate symposium for PhD students and post-doctoral workers researching in biological or medicinal chemistry and related areas. Researchers working in these areas are invited to participate.
Call for Abstracts
If you were interested in presenting your relevant PhD or post-doctoral work as a talk or poster, you were asked to submit a single-page abstract by 5th October. All those who submitted abstracts have been notified of the Poster Review Panel's decisions.
