The High Throughput Chemistry and Chemical Biology Gordon Research Conference (GRC) is a premier, international scientific conference focused on advancing the frontiers of science through the presentation of cutting-edge and unpublished research, prioritizing time for discussion after each talk and fostering informal interactions among scientists of all career stages. The conference program includes a diverse range of speakers and discussion leaders from institutions and organizations worldwide, concentrating on the latest developments in the field. The conference is five days long and held in a remote location to increase the sense of camaraderie and create scientific communities, with lasting collaborations and friendships. In addition to premier talks, the conference has designated time for poster sessions from individuals of all career stages, and afternoon free time and communal meals allow for informal networking opportunities with leaders in the field.
The 2025 High Throughput Chemistry and Chemical Biology (HTCCB) GRC continues to put forward a slate of cutting-edge research presentations at the interface of chemistry and biology with dissemination of discoveries poised to provide a significant impact on human health. This research also helps sustain innovations across synthetic chemistry, chemical biology, high-throughput experimentation, medicinal chemistry, computational methods, and bioengineering. Afternoon poster sessions will also contribute to the scientific and social interactions at HTCCB. This year’s theme will explore the impact of generative artificial intelligence (AI) on drug discovery.
We are also pleased to announce that Huda Barhoosh (University of California Irvine, USA) and Giulia Murbach de Oliveira (Purdue University, USA) are organizing the 8th Gordon Research Seminar (GRS) on High-Throughput Chemistry and Chemical Biology. This GRS will be held on Saturday and Sunday July 26 & 17, immediately prior to the GRC, and will provide an opportunity for trainees to share science and interact with leading researchers in an intimate setting. Graduate students and postdoctoral fellows are encouraged to apply to both the GRS and GRC.
Applications for this meeting must be submitted by June 29, 2025. Please apply early, as some meetings become oversubscribed (full) before this deadline. If the meeting is oversubscribed, it will be stated here. Note: Applications for oversubscribed meetings will only be considered by the conference chair if more seats become available due to cancellations.
The conference will consist of nine sessions. The conference chair is currently developing their preliminary program, which will include the names of the invited speakers and discussion leaders for each of these sessions. The preliminary program will be available by October 30, 2024. Please the event website for the most up-to-date information.
