On behalf of the Centre for Natural Products Discovery (CNPD) and the Conference Organising Committee, I cordially invite you to participate in the 5th Annual CNPD Conference 2024 on ‘Advances in Natural Products Research’, which will be held online in Liverpool on 19-21 June 2024.
Like four previously organised successful annual CNPD conferences, this conference will also be a unique platform for highlighting the advances in natural products research covering cosmetics, food, medicine, and agricultural products. The conference will comprise invited talks (20 min) and short oral presentations (10 min) focusing on what matters most, to be delivered by global leaders in natural products research as well as by young scientists (PhD students and postdocs). This conference will offer two individual sessions dedicated to open, interactive and participatory discussions with selected panel members and the audience on various issues and challenges around natural products research.​
This online conference marks the 5th anniversary of the foundation of the CNPD, which conducts externally funded and impactful natural products research with the aim of discovering new high-value natural products that will contribute to tackling current and future societal and global challenges in health and well-being, socio-economic growth, natural conservation, and environmental sustainability.
The CNPD is based in the School of Pharmacy and Biomolecular Sciences at LJMU, which is the second oldest Pharmacy education provider in the UK and has a rich history of world-leading natural products research.
I look forward to welcoming you to this exciting conference. Please Join us virtually and have a wonderful time with our CNPD family and all other participants!!!
