Call for Workshops

Drug Discovery & Therapy 2017 conference invites proposals to organize a one day workshop as part of the conference program for approval by the program committee. Drug Discovery & Therapy 2017 is a unique international conference that provides a platform for all pharmaceutical scientists and primary care physicians to discuss important international breakthroughs in drug discovery and new therapeutics. The focus of the conference will be on the interdisciplinary fields of drug discovery, drug therapy and translational medicine.

The previous conferences of this series of events were held in Dubai in February 2008-2016 and in Boston in June 2013-2016. Thirty Nobel Laureates and more than 5000 international delegates participated in these conferences! They were outstanding successes by all accounts.
