XXII NMMC provides an attractive panel of worldwide scientists interacting and exchanging the latest ideas, scientific breakthroughs and techniques. The scientific program covers specific topics: CNS diseases, computational sciences in drug discovery, infectious diseases and drug resistance, oncology and epigenetics, inflammatory and metabolic diseases, analytical tools in drug discovery and development, new approaches in drug discovery and natural products and nutraceuticals. The meeting program includes plenary and keynote lectures, short communications on two parallel sessions, and poster presentations. The Meeting language is English.
