The meeting will cover the following sessions, for which abstracts can be submitted:

Drug discovery and new therapeutics

In addition, Swiss TPH will offer a guided tour in the new building, and there will be prices for the best students' contributions (poster and presentation).

We will have plenty of room for strengthening our networks with new and old friends and colleagues during lunch and coffee breaks as well as at the conference dinner on 7 September, 2023 in the restaurant “zum Schmaus”.

We look forward to a lively meeting in Allschwil with many of you participating – keeping the good SSTMP spirit going.
