Announcment: Gordon Research Conference “Metals in Biology”

Announcment: Joint IBDG/SBIC Meeting Metals in Biology: From Homeostasis to Medical Applications

Metals in chemical biology.

Bioinorganic chemistry—the interface of biology and inorganic chemistry—first emerged as a distinct discipline around 1962 with the first “Metals in Biology” Gordon Research Conference (originally called “Metals and Metal Binding in Biology”). The field exploded in the early 1980s, with 1983 marking the first International Conference on Biological Inorganic Chemistry (ICBIC) (p. 157). Since thi...
