Abstract

A reflection on the development of medicinal chemistry and chemical biology in Europe, and how the European Federation for Medicinal Chemistry (EFMC) helps the scientific community address its changing scope in a proactive manner. Networking, knowledge exchange and representation, as well as the acceptance and integration of novel scientific developments are keys to a healthy and dynamic scientific community. This article also reviews some of the forces that shape the medicinal chemistry and chemical biology continuum, including cross-fertilization, digitalization, and the outsourcing of synthetic and characterization work to focus on productivity and scientific excellence.
