Research at the Leading Edge of Synthesis, Drug Discovery, and Biosynthesis

Natural products have been inspiring scientists, physicians, and engineers for decades. Their exquisite and complex structures have motivated synthetic chemists to develop and showcase powerful synthetic methodologies. Their potent and often highly selective ability to bind to biological targets has driven discoveries in biology and inspired medicinal chemists to develop life saving medicines. The pathways involved in their biosynthesis are driving the fields of biocatalysis and synthetic biology, significantly improving access to medicines as well as fine and commodity chemicals.

The 67th Gordon Conference on Natural products and Bioactive Compounds will bring together outstanding researchers from across industry and academia to present and discuss research at the leading edge of chemical synthesis, methodology development, drug discovery, natural product isolation and biosynthesis, chemical biology, and synthetic biology. This premier conference will continue its rich tradition of presentations by established leaders in the field as well as by emerging young investigators. Mark your calendars and apply early as this meeting was oversubscribed in 2017!
