Induced Proximity: Degradation and Beyond

Dear all,

Registration and abstract submission to the EACR-BI webinar on "Induced proximity - Degradation and beyond" is now open.

Key speakers will include Edward Tate (Imperial College London, UK), Daniel K Nomura (University of California, USA), Amit Choudhary (Harvard Medical School, USA), Gwenn Hansen (Nurix, USA), Agnieszka Konopacka (ICR, UK) | Zuzanna Kozicka (EPFL, Switzerland), Brian Liau (Harvard University, USA), and Nicolas Thomä (EPFL, Switzerland).

Please find below the key information about the conference, which promises to be a stimulating and scientifically rich meeting on this rapidly evolving field.

Target audience

This conference is aimed at researchers in academia and industry working in chemical biology, drug discovery, and cancer therapeutics. It will be particularly relevant to scientists interested in targeted protein degradation, induced proximity strategies, and translational approaches to novel oncology treatments.

Topics to be covered:

PROTACs and molecular glue degraders in clinical development

Induced proximity beyond degradation: Gain-of-Function concepts

Rational design and computational discovery of molecular glues

Novel E3 ligases

Expanding the target space for degraders

Enabling technologies and translational challenges in developing proximity inducers
