Join us on November 25–27 for a packed schedule of talks, all given by prestigious speakers on a diversity of topics related to chemical biology and early drug discovery, including our presentation about the European Chemical Biology Database (ECBD). EU-OPENSCREEN Autumn Training School is free of charge and fully virtual, so that scientists from around the world may join the discussions. EU-OPENSCREEN Autumn Training School is for everyone with an interest in chemical biology and/or early drug discovery! Students and early-career scientists are especially welcome, to learn about the fundamentals of research in these fields and network with our distinguished guest speakers during the training Q&A sessions. Participation fee: free of charge
Our presentation about the European Chemical Biology Database (ECBD, https://ecbd.eu) will be given by Ctibor Škuta and is scheduled for Wednesday, Novemeber 27, at 9:30. In the first part of he presentation, basic concepts behind the data acquisition, description and access will be covered, including the introduction to the web user interface. In the second part, main ECBD functionality will be demonstrated during the live demo.
On 16th to 18th October Martin Popr (Head of the compound management and automation at CZ-OS) will be presenting a talk at the SLAS 2024 Sample Management Symposium in Toulouse, France. The event is taking place at the Evotec Curie Campus. The symposium is focused on the recent progress in the field of Compound/Sample Management and gathers participants from both industry and academia who are interested or involved in maintaining large collections of chemical and biological samples.
Title of the oral presentation: Integrated Compound Management In Academia. The talk will be given as part of the Innovation track session on 18th of October at 11:30 AM. The presentation will focus on the introduction of technological and computational bases of the compound management at CZ-OS, highlighting the essential role of advanced chem- and bio-informatic tools which support all the stages of compound management task and biological activity testing.
In the research area of life sciences, it is essential to keep pace with the technological innovations and monitor what the market has to offer. This is why in May we've visited the SLAS Europe 2024 Conference and Exhibition in Barcelona, Spain organized by the Society for Laboratory Automation and Screening. The event focused on recent advancements in the field of laboratory automation and screening and consist of a conference part where the scientific program is presented and an exhibition where the major vendors present the new technology and instrumentation. Martin Popr presented the poster entitled: Automated Compound Management Pipeline At The CZ-OPENSCREEN which was included in the Frontiers in Technology session at this conference.
