title: Successes and pitfalls of medical chemistry programs.
abstract: The RSC-SCI Medicinal Chemistry Symposium is a regular biennial event, always held at Churchill College, Cambridge, U.K. This year's meeting saw a diverse program of excellent medicinal chemistry presentations, mostly concentrated upon the early discovery and optimization stage, although discovery-enabling technologies were also discussed. The 24 lectures and 26 poster presentations provided details of a number of new clinical candidates, or first disclosures of the structures of clinical candidates, and of several new lead-generation programs.
