9th Modern Solid Phase Peptide Synthesis & Its Applications Symposium

Thank you for attending

The 9th Modern Solid Phase Peptide Synthesis & Its Applications Symposium was held from 12-14 October 2023 at Hope Island, QLD.

Continued and exciting advances in all aspects of the science of solid phase peptide synthesis, ranging from solid supports, instrumentation, chemistries and protocols, have allowed the acquisition of ever more complex and large biological targets. These include small proteins, de novo designed peptides with purposely conferred structural properties, cyclic peptides, post-translationally modified peptides and peptide-oligonucleotide conjugates. Importantly, these advances that have allowed access to this diverse array of peptide products have enabled a dramatic increase in the chemical, biological and medical applications of peptides.

This symposium provided a superb opportunity for all practitioners (and interested observers!) of solid phase peptide synthesis, together with those who use synthetic peptides for a myriad of applications, to gather to discuss the latest developments over a few relaxed and convivial days.
