About the Workshop

At Sygnature Discovery, our success is built on the scientific excellence of our people. To inspire and support the next generation of drug discovery scientists, we are pleased to invite final year synthetic organic/medicinal chemistry PhD and postdoc chemists to apply to take part in a one-day medicinal chemistry course at our site in Nottingham City Centre. During this interactive workshop, participants will have the opportunity to learn about fundamental aspects of medicinal chemistry, and how this core scientific discipline lies at the heart of Sygnature’s research activities. The course will consist of several seminars delivered by experienced medicinal chemists together with interactive workshops to discuss and develop key themes introduced during the talks.

The workshop will be held at BioCity, Nottingham on 16th October 2025. Applications are now open.
