of protein function. Professor Kent has been awarded numerous
prestigious accolades, including most recently in 2017 the esteemed
Laboratory of Organic Chemistry at ETH Zürich’s Prelog Medal. We
hope you attend this SYMPOSIUM, whose invitee list includes many
esteemed colleagues and experts in peptide and protein chemistry. In
addition to seminars from highly innovative chemists there will be
