The plenary session at #EFMCISMC24 continues with Stuart Conway giving the UCB-Ehrlich Award lecture on “Bringing Bump-and-Hole to Molecular Glues: the Development of Orthogonal Imid-Degron Pairs”, chaired by Adrian Hall. Amazing work! EFMC EFMC Young Scientists Network

📣The second speech of the day is coming from Prof. Stuart CONWAY Stuart Conway rewarded with UCB EHRLICH Award for excellence in medical chemıstry with the talk titled “Bringing Bump-and-Hole to Molecular Glues: the Development of Orthogonal Imid-Degron Pairs”🔬💡 #EFMCISMC24

Stuart Conway Stuart Conway about a bump-and-hole approach based on #IMiDs and IKZF1/3. Broad potential application space in chemical biology, target validation but also as switch for therapeutic biomacromolecules such as CAR-T cells. #EFMCISMC24 EFMC

Is rewarding to see the winner of the EFMC prize for young medicinal chemistry in 2012 reaching now the highest level of recognition with the UCB-Ehrlich award.

📣Starting Session 18: " Early Career Women in Medicinal Chemistry & Chemical Biology” chaired by Dr. Maria-Jesus BLANCO from ATAVISTIK BIO is starting with a lecture from Prof. Maria Laura BOLOGNESI on Medicinal Chemistry and the United Development Goals: a Personal Adventure “.

First post. NIH and medical research are under attack by the Trump admin. Cancer cures are being stopped. Please follow us for more info.

Today's visit UCLA Chem & Biochem hosted by Ken Houk Stuart Conway and Mike Jung was a real "return to the future" for me and bringing so many memories from my 2000-03 postdoc with Fraser Stoddart Missing you Fraser 😪 Met students from the Garg Lab UCLA located in my former lab, thanks guys!
