  1. Academics to Industry San Diego Section Left to Right: Ryan Clark, Graeme Freestone, Erica Campbell, Mark Tichenor and Ben Pratt

  2. Academics to Industry • Event: Introduction to medicinal chemistry designed for chemistry graduate students and post docs. • Concept: The younger chemists perspective on industry careers • Graduate programs in chemistry often do not expose students to industry careers • Medicinal chemists need to be able to interface with other scientific disciplines • Younger chemists are able to teach basic concepts in medicinal chemistry to graduate students with the appropriate level of detail (biology concepts focus on “why” not “how”) • Presenters: Five younger chemists with diverse experience • Intro to Medicinal Chemistry-The Basics (Erica Campbell) • Drug Metabolism (Mark Tichenor) • Barriers to Exposure (Graeme Freestone) • In Vitro Biology (Ben Pratt) • The Role of In Vivo Studies in Drug Development (Ryan Clark)

  3. Event Planning • Venue: The Scripps Research Institute, UC Los Angeles, UC San Diego • Funding: 2011 Innovative Projects Grant, YCC budget • Planning committee: Younger Chemists • Impact Assessment: • Attendance maintained (90-110 students) over five seminars • Very engaged, thoughtful questions • Feedback forms • Asked to return in the future • Some students have attended the seminar series twice
