INVITATION

The International Symposium on Pharmaceutical Chemistry (ISPC) series is a well-established scientific event initiated by the Department of Pharmaceutical Chemistry at Hacettepe University Faculty of Pharmacy and has been internationally recognized in the fields of pharmaceutical and medicinal chemistry since 1997.

As one of the most prestigious meetings in Türkiye in this field, ISPC aims to strengthen interdisciplinary academic interaction and to promote scientific collaboration at both national and international levels.

Organized six times between 1997 and 2010 with great success, the symposium has gained a strong position in the field through its expanding scientific scope, deepening academic content, and broad participant profile.

The seventh ISPC will be held in June 2026 in Ankara, in collaboration with the Vaccine Institute of Türkiye (TAE) and the Health Institutes of Türkiye (TÜSEB).

The scientific program will particularly focus on fundamental and applied research areas including, but not limited to:

    * Drug discovery and development processes
    * Modern strategies targeting therapeutic pathways
    * Molecular design, synthesis, structure–activity relationships, and mechanistic studies
    * Vaccine development and next-generation vaccine technologies

The symposium is expected to host world-renowned scientists, international API manufacturers, advanced research institutions, industry representatives, and public authorities.

Particular emphasis will be placed on supporting young researchers by fostering direct interaction with international experts and contributing to their scientific communication networks and career development.

On the final day, a special panel session will be held with the participation of international health authorities and policymakers, focusing on global drug and vaccine strategies.

We would be honored to welcome you to this significant scientific event.
