Dear Colleagues,
Here we forward you information about 13th International Symposium on Natural Product Chemistry at Karachi Pakistan, from Secretary of Organizing Committee, Prof. Dr. M. Iqbal Choudhary, H.I., S.I., T.I.
The event will be held: | ||
Time | : | 22nd -25th November 2012 |
Place | : | International Center for Chemical and Biological Sciences (ICCBS) at the University of Karachi |
The main objective of this symposia series is to present to the world the frontiers of natural product chemistry and allied sciences and to bring together both young and experienced scientists from all regions of the world to open up possibilities of engaging in then meaningful collaborations at regional and global levels.
This series of symposia has in the past brought together a galaxy of the most eminent scientists to Karachi, Pakistan including several Nobel Laureates (Prof. H.C. Brown (Late), Prof. R. Huber, Prof. Sir Derek Barton (late), Prof. Jean-Marie Lehn, Prof. R. Noyori and Prof. R. Ernst) and has earned a world-wide reputation of excellence as one of the best events in natural product chemistry.
The aim of the symposium is to bring together leading experts in the field of natural products sciences all around the world and forge global partnerships for sustainable utilization of natural resources for the common benefit of humanity and rapid development of the countries in the south. Following aspects of natural product sciences will be covered:
- Isolation and structural elucidation of natural products
- Synthesis of natural products
- Pharmacology and bioassay on natural products
- Biotechnology for natural products development
- Advances in spectroscopy
- Rational drug designing
- Medicinal plants cultivation and conservation
- Chemistry of marine- and micro-organisms
