Matthew Rosenberg wins Best Poster Award at the 4th Swedish Medicinal Chemistry Symposium

At the Apotekarsocieteten's 4th Swedish Medicinal Chemistry Symposium, which took place on April 17-18 in Stockholm's Westmanska Palatset, Matthew Rosenberg, PhD student in the research group for Pharmaceutical Design and Pharmaceutical Development, was awarded the prize for Best Poster. In addition to the honor. In addition to the honor, the award includes participation at the XXVIII EFMC International Symposium on Medicinal Chemistry, this year being held in Rome, Italy.

At the Swedish Medicinal Chemistry Symposium, which focuses on current progress in Swedish pharmaceutical research in academia and industry, Lorenzo Balestri, postdoctoral fellow in the research group for Preparative medicinal chemistry, also received an award for his poster. In the same group, PhD student Esther Olaniran Håkansson was selected among the junior researchers who were given the opportunity to present their research within the framework of a lecture.

"It is inspiring for all of us to share the successes of our younger employees. They show that we conduct competitive research, and in this particular case that our junior researchers possess great competence in communicating and making available the results of their work. It's really great," states Anders Karlén, Professor of Computer-Aided Drug Design at Uppsala University.
