Dr Jean Jacques Vanden Eynde, editor-in-chief of Pharmaceuticals, commented: “An international electronic conference allows thousands of researchers to share their results and ideas without having to leave their offices. Our goal when we launched the first International Electronic Conferences on Medicinal Chemistry was to contribute to significant advances in healthcare. This is still the aim of the 2017 edition, which includes an exceptional roundtable on nanomedicines sponsored by Precision Nanosystems,”

The roundtable is moderated by Dr Euan Ramsay, co-founder and COO of Precision NanoSystems, who is joined by Professor Pieter Cullis from the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at the University of British Columbia, and Professor Dan Peer from the Department of Cell Research and Immunology at Tel Aviv University. The discussion will consider the impact of medicinal chemistry on the clinical development of nucleic acid-lipid nanoparticles, and the development of lipid-based nanoparticles for the delivery of hydrophobic drugs. In addition, all three experts will provide insight into the potential role for medicinal chemistry in realizing the opportunities of targeted nanomedicines.
