<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\nA Dial-a-Molecule EPSRC Grand Challenge theme event<\/h3>\n
When:<\/strong> 5 February 2013<\/em>
\nWhere:<\/strong> 3M Buckley Innovation Centre, University of Huddersfield (http:\/\/www.3mbic.com\/)<\/em><\/p>\nThe last 10 years have seen a radical restructuring of global pharma R&D in response to the increasingly challenging process of discovering, progressing and launching a new drug. A consequence of this business remodelling has been the tapering of UK synthetic and medicinal chemistry capacity; this offers an opportunity for academic synthetic chemists to generate impact in the drug discovery process, especially in the hit\/lead identification phase of the drug pipeline. The 3D Fragment Consortium is an EPSRC-funded network, which aims to expand the chemical space of drug discovery by leveraging novel class-leading academic synthetic chemistry. Access to such cutting-edge synthetic expertise will empower and enable the study of drug target classes previously lacking high quality chemical start points; such as protein-protein interactions. Given the UK strength in chemical synthesis, a chemical consortium focused upon the implementation of powerful synthetic methods would be perfectly placed to design and deliver novel three-dimensional chemical libraries for fragment screening to complement existing fragment libraries. The consortium would also be able to contribute to the generation of useful chemical start points for a broad range of target therapeutic classes.<\/p>\n

In particular, the workshop will discuss:
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0how class-leading academic synthesis can be used in a drug discovery context
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0the key features of fragment libraries, and their relevance to cutting-edge research groups
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0the tools available to enable synthetic chemists to make contributions to the drug discovery process

\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0how to deal with IP issues<\/p>\nThe key deliverable of the event will be the creation of a blueprint for successful collaborations between academic chemists and drug-hunting organisations.<\/p>\n
