Covalent binding has emerged as a key strategy in contemporary drug discovery. This online, half-day meeting will bring together experts from both academia and industry to discuss recent advances in using covalent small molecules to target challenging protein targets.

The BMCS Hot Topics online meetings are intended to highlight breaking areas of research in fields of science relevant to drug discovery. They will run as stand-alone half-day virtual events, 2-3 times per year. The programme will be targeted towards researchers working who would like to enhance their understanding of these nascent or developing fields.
