Fragment events in 2025

After a bumper year for conferences in 2024, this year is also shaping up to be eventful. 

April 14-17: CHI’s Twentieth Annual Fragment-Based Drug Discovery, the longest-running annual fragment event, returns as always to San Diego. This is part of the larger Drug Discovery Chemistry meeting. You can read impressions of the 2024 meeting here, the 2023 meeting here, the 2022 event here, the 2021 virtual meeting here, the 2020 virtual meeting here, the 2019 meeting here, the 2018 meeting here, the 2017 meeting here, the 2016 meeting here; the 2015 meeting herehere, and here; the 2014 meeting here and here; the 2013 meeting here and here; the 2012 meeting here; the 2011 meeting here; and 2010 here
 
May 5-6: Returning after a five year hiatus, Industrial Biostructures of America will be held in Cambridge, MA and includes a session on FBLD. 

June 2-4:  The Eleventh NovAliX Conference returns to the stunning city of Strasbourg. You can read my impressions of the 2018 Boston event here, the 2017 Strasbourg event here, and Teddy's impressions of the 2013 event herehere, and here.

September 21-24: FBLD 2025 will be held in the original Cambridge (UK),  where it was supposed to be held in 2020. This will mark the ninth in an illustrious series of conferences organized by scientists for scientists. You can read impressions of FBLD 2024FBLD 2018FBLD 2016FBLD 2014FBLD 2012FBLD 2010, and FBLD 2009
 
September 22-25: You'll need to make a tough choice: FBLD 2025 or CHI’s Twenty-Third Annual Discovery on Target. As the name implies this event is more target-focused than chemistry-focused, but there are always plenty of FBDD-related talks. You can read my impressions of the 2024 meeting here, the 2023 meeting here, the 2022 meeting here, the 2021 event here, the 2020 virtual event here, the 2019 event here, and the 2018 event here.
 
Finally, from November 11-13 CHI holds its second Drug Discovery Chemistry Europe in beautiful Barcelona. This will include likely tracks on lead generation, protein-protein interactions, degraders, machine learning, and probably several fragment talks.
