RSC CBBG Interest Group

We're delighted to announce that @peacockgroup.bsky.social is the winner of the 2025 CBBG Lectureship Award for her outstanding contributions to the chemical biology and bioinorganic chemistry communities, and research on the design of new-to-nature metalloproteins

A Travel Bursary from CBBG recently allowed Emma Barclay from @universityofleeds.bsky.social to attend the EFMC-ASMC 2025 meeting in Porto, Portugal:
"As my PhD is charity funded, this experience would not have been possible without the receipt of the RSC CBBG travel bursary."

The CBBG offers travel bursaries to PhD students like Tom Smith: 'I was fortunate enough to receive a travel bursary to present a poster at EFMC-ISCB-2025 in Basel. It was a fantastic experience to hear talks from around the world and to meet people from the wider chemical biology community!'

Nominations for the CBBG Lectureship Award have been extended to the 31st of May! So still a small amount of times to get your nominations in

RSC Chem. Biol and @orgbiomolchem.rsc.org are proud to support the @rsc-cbbg.bsky.social Postgraduate Symposium taking place 13 June at the University of Aberdeen. Oral abstracts are due by this Friday, 9 May, and posters by 16 May. Find out more: www.rsc.org/events/detai...

Are you an early career researcher in chemical biology? Our colleagues in the Chemistry-Biology Interface group at the RSC are organising this fantastic leadership retreat, bringing together experts in the field to talk about research, leadership, and collaboration
