Where Medicinal and Computational Chemistry Come Together
We are delighted to invite drug hunters, compound enthusiasts, and molecule designers back to the virtual DrugSpace Symposium. The fifth edition takes place on December 9, 2026, under the theme “The Path to Digital Chemistry,” and turns the spotlight on where computational and medicinal chemistry meet.
New approaches to synthesis, screening, and prediction are changing how modern drug discovery campaigns are planned and carried out. Invited speakers from industry and academia will share their latest research and perspectives on these developments.

Open to Every Curious Mind in Drug Discovery
Drug discovery moves forward when ideas cross disciplines and reach beyond individual labs. The fifth BioSolveIT DrugSpace Symposium is open to everyone interested in the path to digital chemistry, and participation is free of charge.
We welcome medicinal and computational chemists, researchers and students, decision-makers, and professionals from the pharmaceutical, crop science, and healthcare sectors. Method developers, molecule designers, and those applying new approaches in their projects are all invited to join the discussion.
