10th Annual Parallel Trade
08 February 2016 - 09 February 2016
Parallel distribution market in 2015 has been an interesting year: foreign exchange fluctuations, Greek crisis, tightened export control, legal battles on trademarks and counterfeit medicines. These, in addition to many other factors, have shifted the European market dynamics significantly.
Market participants continue to innovate new strategies to ensure revenue stream, but more importantly compliant of safety and accessibility of drugs for patients. The pressure of uncertainty is prompting industry colleagues to rethink and reassess their current supply chain models.
What new opportunities will present to parallel distribution in 2016? How should pharma and manufacturers perfect their sales and supply chain forecast? Will the EU Falsified Medicine Directive in 2018 reassure patient safety?

RNA Therapeutics
15 February 2016 - 16 February 2016
We will review clinical trial updates in oncology, cardiovascular injury, and ophthalmology, and open the floor for discussion to review existing and emerging concepts in delivery systems, oligonucleotides, aptamer-conjugates as well as messenger RNA therapeutics.
The biggest challenge in enabling RNAi therapy is transporting RNA to target sites outside the liver, and so having targeted delivery systems, which can optimise bioavailability and controllable kinetics remains an issue. However, with exciting concepts such as polymeric nanoparticles and viral vectors as a new class of carriers existing on the horizon, the conference will look at the future of these technologies.

Advances & Progress in Drug Design
15 February 2016 - 16 February 2016
Hosted over two days, this international conference will provide an exclusive opportunity to gain new insight on small molecule-protein fragments, IMI Open PHACTS project for data mining work flows, and structure-based models combining hit finding strategies of fragment leads.
Inspiring talks will also highlight developments in the quality control of misfolded proteins, solvent effects, and protein-ligand stability; identifying whether the bound conformation of protein-ligand structure gives the lowest energy state and the impact of drug design.

Enzymes in Drug Discovery Summit
29 February 2016 - 02 March 2016
We are excited to announce the Enzymes in Drug Discovery Summit, which will take place February 29 - March 2, 2016 in San Diego, CA.
Enzymes have proven to be an important group of drug targets in diseases, and enzyme inhibitors have been among the most successful of drugs. Join us as we discuss ways to overcome drug resistance to these inhibitors, and discuss breakthroughs in targeting historically undruggable enzymes.
