The EFMC International Symposium on Advances in Synthetic and Medicinal Chemistry are jointly organised by the European Federation for Medicinal Chemistry and ChemBridge Corporation since 2004. The general concept of the meeting is to combine medicinal and organic synthetic chemistry, in order to facilitate building international contacts within academia, industry and start-up companies from around the world.

More information, as well as the final programmes of previous editions, can be found on the EFMC website.
