The ESPERANCE project is organising the meeting “Modern Approaches for Discovering New Therapeutics”, to be held from 20–22 October 2026 at the University of Patras, Greece.

The three-day meeting is designed to support the training and development of students, PhD candidates, postdoctoral researchers and early-stage investigators in the Life Sciences. It will provide participants with the opportunity to engage with current research approaches, methodologies and emerging tools relevant to drug discovery and therapeutic development.

The programme will explore a range of contemporary topics across the Life Sciences, with a focus on new approaches and technologies that are shaping modern drug discovery. By bringing together early-stage researchers and the wider academic community, the meeting aims to support knowledge exchange and strengthen research skills in an evolving scientific field.

The event will take place at the Department of Pharmacy, Pavlos Kordopatis Auditorium, University of Patras
