Chemistry Towards Biology – Instruct Conference will be held on September 11 – 14, 2022 in Bratislava.

The conference will mainly cover topics – structure of biomolecules, intermolecular interactions, experimental and theoretical methods in biomolecular research.

The symposium will cover invited lectures, oral presentations selected from submitted abstracts, and poster sessions. Special attention is devoted to the active participation of young people at the symposium.

The early bird registration and abstract submission is May 31st, normal is June 30th. PhD students have special reduced fee.

Further details can be found at the conference web pages (https://www.instruct.sav.sk) and the conference flyer.
