10th Anniversary

Offering a comprehensive overview of the full drug discovery and pharma
market landscape - Drug Discovery Technology Europe 2006 will give you
the opportunity to discuss the impact of new science.

The focus will be on the importance of Medicinal Chemistry, developments
in Predictive Techniques and an update on the progess made in
Biotherapeutics. Case studies will take place throughout the two days,
as well as during the dedicated post-conference Case Histories day.

The strategic driven aspect of the programme: Biotech Business will, for
the first year, take place on a stage in the exhibition hall.


"A major European event in the biomedical sciences that captured the
most important and timely issues faced by those active in various
aspects of biotechnology and pharmaceutical research"
