Pharmaceutical Sciences - Pharma Group Meeting (19th April 2013)
Symposia: Validation From Drug Substance to Drug Product
Regulatory bodies are demanding more of sponsors in their understanding and evaluation of molecules destined for human trials. This is true from drug substance through to drug product. Come and hear speakers discuss validation - from characterisation of the drug substance to small molecule phase I and large molecule phase III drug products.
Date: Friday 19 April, 2013
Time: 3:00pm – 6:00pm (drinks & finger food provided)
Venue: PM-06, Playford Building Gate 3, Frome Road, Adelaide (See Building ‘P’ on map below)

Biomolecular Chemistry Poster Competition (8th April 2013)
In conjunction with the RACI and Bionomics a poster competition for PhD students in biomolecular chemistry (to be interpreted in a fairly broad sense) will be held on Monday 8th April at 4pm. The event will be open to chemistry students at Flinders, UniSA and the University of Adelaide, and a first prize of free registration to the RACI biomolecular chemistry meeting will be offered.
The event will be hosted by Bionomics, and as well as the poster competition there will be some brief talks from chemists working in the pharmaceutical industry and in patent law, and perhaps a brief lab tour too. Numbers will be limited to 3 or 4 poster entrants per university, so please send an abstract to Dr Jonathan George if you are interested in taking part. Further information can be found here.

mony was held in the SILC - Science Innovation Learning Centre – at Flinders University. The event was attended by over 140 people which included around 40 students, family members of the students and chemistry teachers from around the state. Dr Rachel Popelka-Filcoff, an AINSE Research Fellow from the School of Chemistry & Physics at Flinders University, gave a talk about her research into radioanalytical chemistry and its application in archeological science, forensics and environmental studies. Rachel was the South Australian Tall Poppy of the Year in 2012.
