The 8th AFMC International Medicinal Chemistry Symposium (AIMECS 11), to be held 29 November–2 December 2011 at the Keio Plaza Hotel, Tokyo, will bring together researchers from around the world to share and discuss the most important and critical developmental challenges in medicinal chemistry. The symposium is focused on the subject “Frontier of Medicinal Science,” including drug discovery chemistry, regenerative medicine, innate immunity, frontier methods for drug discovery, and other topics. The scope of medicinal chemistry has undergone noteworthy, scientifically intriguing expansion to the many fields of science. “Drug Discovery and Development” is an extremely important and challenging theme, and its solution will bring tremendous practical benefits to humanity.
