20th Blue Danube Sympozium on Heterocycles in Chemistry
20th Blue Danube Symposium on Heterocykles in Chemistry
WHEN: 25th - 28th August, 2024
WHERE: Faculty of Science, Albertov 6, Prague 2
Online registration and abstract form open
Blue Danube Symposium on Heterocycles in Chemistry, previously known as the Blue Danube Symposium on Heterocyclic Chemistry, has a rich history dating back to the year 1991. Over the past three decades, this symposium has been organized in various cities in Austria, Czech Republic, Hungary, Slovakia, and Slovenia, and hosted plenty of esteemed speakers, including several Nobel Prize Laureates. Yet, Prague has not had the honor of hosting this remarkable conference—until now. It is with great pride that we announce the hosting of the jubilant 20th edition of the conference at Faculty of Science, Charles University in Prague.
One might be wondering, why to change the name after 33 years? The answer is simple: as chemistry evolves, so must our approach. The name change is not merely symbolic; it signifies our commitment to evolving the conference concept to better serve the scientific community. We aim to broaden the conference’s appeal, welcoming scientists from diverse fields—medicinal chemistry, biological chemistry, material chemistry, organometallic chemistry, and beyond—whose reasearch might not be fully focused on heterocyclic chemistry, but the pivotal role of heterocycles in their work is recognized.
Prague, with its rich history and vibrant scientific community, serves as the perfect place to kick off this transformative change.
