Current Events

We are delighted that our 20th Congress will take place as a face-to-face meeting in Cambridge, UK, 8-10 September 2022.

We look forward to welcoming friends and colleagues from across the world to reconnect in person and hear and discuss the latest research in psychiatric epidemiology and social psychiatry.

Achieving impact in parasitology: learning lessons from interdisciplinary research and community engagement

Delivering interventions to control or eliminate parasitic disease are more likely to be successful when a strong interdisciplinary approach and meaningful culturally-appropriate engagement with the affected communities are employed.

Our two day autumn symposium (19-20 Sept 2022) at Keele University in Staffordshire UK, will discuss how lessons learnt from practitioners of interdisciplinary delivery and community engagement can help to bring about effective healthcare interventions for the control of parasitic diseases.

This meeting seeks to bring together colleagues from applied healthcare, policy, social science, epidemiology, laboratory science and anthropological backgrounds to explore a range of topics, including but not limited to: the benefits and challenges of interdisciplinary approaches; perspectives from social science on the wide impact of parasitic infections; effects of conflict and the COVID-19 pandemic on control of neglected tropical diseases; evaluation of community engagement in global health; improving access and delivery of healthcare to affected communities; disease modelling; compliance and adherence in Mass Drug Administration.

Submission of abstracts for oral and poster presentations will open on 21st June. The deadline for abstract submissions is 1st September 2022.

Online only access will be available later. Registration is not required to submit an abstract. << less

Drug repositioning and repurposing aims to discover new indications for existing medicines. Novel technologies and tools are being adopted in favour of traditional methods to increase chances of success into a range of therapy areas. Learn about the technologies and partnerships within drug discovery that are advancing the field of indication discovery and expansion.

WELCOME TO DRUG DISCOVERY 2022 ELRIG’s annual Drug Discovery meeting which remains Europe’s largest meeting for life sciences industry professionals. During this conference, ELRIG will celebrate its long history of hosting disruptive and innovative drug discovery technology developments, whilst exploring the next life science revolutions. 
Since the pandemic, Drug Discovery and scientific achievements have reached into people’s lives in way not seen before. This has driven support for diverse and collaborative thinking to make unprecedented scientific progress. The ELRIG community are now facing an exciting prospect to help drive this renaissance in life sciences. 
Drug Discovery 2022 promises to provide a platform for the whole drug discovery community to meet at a free to attend, in-person event. ELRIG has partnered with; BPS, SLAS, and RSC to draw together an exciting and progressive 2-day event containing; cutting-edge advancements in screening, automation and high content imaging, and innovations in disease models, advances in cell and gene therapies, revolutions through partnerships, future perspectives in medicinal and green chemistry and finally creative thinking to deliver therapies to one of the most challenging diseases facing society; COPD. 
ELRIG committee invites you to attend this exciting meeting, and contribute to this revolution through, submission of (poster Abstracts) and round-table discussions throughout the 2-days – We look forward to your contribution!  << less

The 2022 Protein Science in Drug Discovery ELRIG meeting will be held in Cambridge UK. The meeting will host leading scientists from industry and academia and will aim to focus on the application of emerging areas of Protein Science to the challenges of modern drug discovery. The interactive 2-day event will include 4 sessions. The sequential sessions will cover high throughput methods for protein expression, approaches for prosecuting challenging target space and analytical techniques to interrogate protein quality. In addition, AI tools for the development of methods to predict protein production will be discussed. Join scientists from academia, pharma, biotech and CRO ́s to hear cutting-edge science, network and visit the vendor booths << less

The life science industry is increasingly making use of robotics to automate specific processes, which when used in combination with artificial intelligence and machine learning is having an immense and profound impact on the speed and success of the drug discovery process.

This meeting jointly organised by SLAS and ELRIG, will focus on the application and interaction of robotics and automation in the traditional biological and chemical spaces, as well as the physical challenges of how to automate beyond the microtiter plate to shift the testing paradigm. We will also highlight how recent innovations and the application of artificial intelligence are also changing how robots interact with humans and their environment.

This two-day conference will provide an exclusive opportunity to network and be involved in inspiring and interesting discussions with opinion leaders in instrumentation, informatics, lab automation, strategy developers and industrial automation experts together with a strong and aligned vendor community. As with all ELRIG conferences, the meeting is free-to-attend, and spaces are limited, so early registration is essential.
