Scientists from the member institutes of the Leibniz Research Network "Bioactive Compounds" came together for this year's conference in Braunschweig from May 24 to 25, 2023. This year it was the turn of the DSMZ to host the event and welcome the participants in the lecture hall of the neighboring Helmholtz Forum (HZI). The meeting served - as usual - as a platform for exchange and discussion as well as for the presentation of scientific results in the form of lectures and poster presentations.
This year, for the first time, prizes were awarded for the best poster as well as for the best junior scientist talk. From the presented scientific posters as well as talks of the young scientists, the participants chose the best ones. Both awards went to young IPB scientists: Ibrahim Morgan was honored with the award for the best poster, Mohamad Saoud received the award for the best talk.
Meanwhile, the “Leibniz Drug of the Year 2023” award was given to HKI scientists for their program to develop nitrobenzothiazinone-based antibiotics against Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
