ABOUT THE 2017 EVENT

700 high-level participants from 29 countries convened in San Diego for Cambridge Healthtech Institute's 12th Annual Drug Discovery Chemistry. 23% of attendees were from Big Pharma, 48% from Biotech, and 17% from Academia. 41% were Scientists/Technologists, 28% were Executives/Director, and 11% were Professors. Focused on discovery and optimization challenges of small molecule drug candidates, this event provided many exciting opportunities for scientists to create a unique program to hear presentations most suited to one's personal interests by going back and forth among concurrent meeting tracks. New for 2017 was the addition of a Part 2 to the always popular Protein-Protein Interactions, a track on GPCR-Targeted Drug Design, and a symposium on Small Molecules for Cancer Immunotherapy. Upgrading to the Hilton Bayfront next year, Drug Discovery Chemistry 2018 will return to San Diego from April 2-6, 2018.
