GoingToMeet

After the three successful LogP Symposia in 1995 and 2000 in Lausanne and 2004 in Zurich, we are delighted to announce the 4th LogP Symposium to be held at ETH Zurich, Switzerland, in 2009.

The LogP2009 Symposium offers a platform for learning and exchange. The focus will be on in vitro and in silico techniques to predict and optimise the pharmacokinetic (ADMET) behaviour of lead and drug candidates. We expect between 200 and 400 participants from industry and academia in "Science City", the growing ETH Campus Honggerberg, Zurich.

The main topics will be:

* PhysChem (ionisation, solubility, partitioning, permeation) including a debate on "Membrane Permeation Mechanisms"
* Absorption, Distribution and Excretion, with a strong focus on transporter proteins
* Metabolism and Toxicity
