The Frontiers in Chemistry and Biology Interface Symposium (FCBIS)
An annual conference in the mid-Atlantic region. This day-long symposium, which began in 2008, is designed to provide an intimate environment to foster discussions on cutting-edge research at the interfaces of chemistry, biology, and medicine. The main theme of this year’s symposium is on exploitation of chemical (synthetic, analytical, and structural) approaches to address interesting and important problems in modern biology and medicine. The schedule includes invited and selected talks, a career panel, and poster sessions. There is no charge to attend the symposium and everyone – Research Scientists, Faculty, Post-Docs and Graduate Students – involved in research from academic, government and local industrial institutions is encouraged to participate.
Looking ahead: Spring 2025, the annual FCBIS symposium will be held in May and is organized by Johns Hopkins University Click HERE for information on this year’s Symposium. Date to be announced early in 2025.
