SCS-09 - Second International Symposium on Combinatorial Sciences in Biology, Chemistry, Catalysts and Materials
[19-22 Sep 2009]

>> Combinatorial science was derived from observation of the mechanism of many processes essential to life and life’s successful development. The observation was that most successful generation of new traits necessary for survival occurred through processes composed of 3 steps.

i) Random generation of molecular diversity;
ii) Survival of features through selective pressure;
iii) Reiteration and refinement.

During the last decade, this unique aspect of nature was adopted by scientists of all fields to promote a completely new revolutionary way of thinking and performing scientific research. 

>> The symposium will cover the following topics:

• Chemical biology: combinatorial approaches
• High-throughput medicinal chemistry
• Diversity and target oriented synthesis
• Solid-phase synthesis and technologies
• Lead discovery and optimization
• Enabling technologies: flow chemistry, informatics, and others
• Emerging concept and technologies
• Microwave assisted organic synthesis
• Combinatorial techniques in polymer, catalyst, and material discovery
