Covid-19 Update

 

Dear Colleagues,

As you very well know, the situation with Covid-19 is not improving, and evaluating the safety (and legal possibility) of a meeting that should take place in June is a big gamble.
It was a difficult decision to make, but we finally decided to postpone ISIB (most likely) to 2022. We will be in touch and advise you of the new date. Needless to say, all speakers' invitations remain open. Thank you for your enthusiasm in joining our event.


We are looking forward to welcoming you in Wroclaw, once it is again a safe and lively place.

Sincerely,

ISIB organizers

​

Dear Friends and Colleagues,

​

We would like to invite you to participate in the “XV International Symposium on Inorganic Biochemistry”, organized between 24th and 27th June 2020.

In the past 35 years, the previous fourteen symposia organised by Henryk Kozlowski have been a great success, bringing together top researchers from around the world, focusing on hotspots of current research in cross-cutting fields of inorganic, coordination and bioinorganic chemistry with biology and medicine, in particular discussing topics such as chemical structure and thermodynamics, solution equilibria and coordination chemistry of metals with biomolecules, transport, homeostasis and toxicity of metals in diseases; metal-based therapy and diagnostics, proteomics and metabolomics.

As usual, the conference aims to provide a valuable discussion forum on recent advances on the above mentioned areas; fostering new collaborations among researchers with complementary skills and goals is of great importance.

In addition to lectures covering a wide range of topics, a poster session will take place. Both the poster session and the relatively free evenings will facilitate more informal discussions, often between the very experienced and the novice conference attendees.  

​

To enlarge our ISIB community, this year we invite New Arrivals on ISIB Chemistry stage.

 

We really hope to see you there,
