The magic of BPS meetings

We welcome you to join us for a BPS focused meeting on 2 and 3 April, 2025, on new therapeutic modalities that are transforming receptor pharmacology.
 
We have gathered together world-leading research stories from speakers in the UK, Europe and the US who will present their latest advances in pharmacological research on GPCRs, protein degraders and ion channels. We will also have speakers from both academia and industry presenting on both sides of the coin on what is driving discovery and translational breakthroughs.
 
So, what will you gain from attending a BPS focused meeting?
 
Well, firstly, with around 150 attendees expected, there’s no doubt that a focused meeting guarantees the opportunity to get up close and personal with our outstanding line-up of speakers so you can scour their brains for their thoughts on the latest pharmacology breakthroughs in the field. No need to wade through the masses for a brief glimpse of a pharmacology hero!
 
It is is also a tremendous opportunity for anyone interested to give an oral communication on your latest work by applying to present in one of the generous number of speaker slots up for grabs. Whether you’re an early career researcher such as a graduate student, postdoc, or new principal investigator (or a “battle-hardened” pro!), you have the chance to present your research to a specialised, relevant and attentive crowd. Sharing research through oral communications is a great way to get noticed and to network because you know that experts specialising in the same area are listening and now you will be on their radar to receive advice, collaborate, or maybe even get a job offer!
 
Furthermore, a focused meeting of specialists who share common ground and can give each other valuable advice with a genuine vested interest in learning from each other, provides a strong platform for networking and making important contacts for the future. So come along and be part of this process in an engaged community. Share your research and learn from each other. Sharing is caring!
 
Finally, this event is being held in Cambridge, a beautiful city and popular tourist attraction, home to college splendour, its labyrinthine streets buzzing with energy and ideas and overflowing with good restaurants and pubs. The event itself is being hosted in one of Cambridge’s oldest and most magnificent colleges, St John’s. A historic oasis in the heart of the city. It’s not every day you can say you made new friends and chatted about cutting edge science on the same hallowed ground that William Wordsworth, Douglas Adams, and Fredirick Sanger used to roam!

We look forward to seeing you.
