ACBC 2027 meeting in Bangkok

The Asian Chemical Biology Conference (ACBC) is a forum to promote advances in chemical biology and to foster friendship and collaboration among chemical biologists in Asia.

Since 2010, the conference has been held in Seoul, Okinawa, Singapore, Kaohsiung, Xi’an, Jeju and Hong Kong, bringing together researchers from Japan, Korea, mainland China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore, Thailand and beyond.

The 8th ACBC will take place in Bangkok, Thailand, from 7 to 10 January 2027, jointly hosted by Chulalongkorn University, Mahidol University, Suranaree University of Technology, VISTEC and the Protein Society of Thailand.

Professor Edward Tate

GSK Chair in Chemical Biology, Imperial College London, UK

Satellite Group Leader, Francis Crick Institute, London, UK

Professor Ed Tate holds the GSK Chair in Chemical Biology at Imperial College London and he is a Satellite Group Leader at the Francis Crick Institute. His group develops chemical probes, chemical proteomics and approaches to proximity-induced pharmacology to understand disease mechanisms and enable drug discovery, with particular interests in protein lipidation and cancer. He is the academic co-founder of the ADC payload biotech Myricx Bio, acquired by Novartis in 2026, and Siftr Bio, developing ADC linkers.
