📢 We are delighted to announce that Prof. Dr. Dirk Trauner from University of Pennsylvania, USA, will serve as a keynote speaker for the 5th Medicinal Chemistry Symposium ( 2026): New Trends in Chemical Biology and Drug Discovery, which will be held in , China, from May 14 to 17, 2026.

🎤 Prof. Trauner serves as a professor in the Department of Systems Pharmacology and Translational Therapeutics at the Perelman School of Medicine, University of Pennsylvania. The broad objective of Prof. Trauner’s research is to demonstrate the awesome power of chemical synthesis with challenging target molecules and to use it toward the establishment of synthetic biological pathways. He is well known for his pioneering contributions to Optogenetics and Photopharmacology, using synthetic photoswitches to confer light-sensitivity to a broad range of targets. The chemical tools he developed are particularly useful in neuroscience and cell biology but also hold promise as precision therapeutics.
