Feb. 2013 Chemical and Biological Potential of South American Asteraceae - [link] Invited lecture at The Hartmut Hoffmann-Berling International Graduate School of Molecular and Cellular Biology (HBIGS), Univ. Heidelberg, Germany, 18 Feb., 2013 Jan.-Feb 2013 Topics on chemoinformatics – application in natural products chemistry Introductory course to Ph.D. students (theory and practical) - from 24 Jan. to 28 Feb., 2013 Institut für Pharmazeutische Biologie und Phytochemie, Univ. Münster, Germany Objectives To present the students general concepts of chemoinformatics involving basic examples and case studies using software, artificial intelligence and development of computer models applied to Organic Chemistry and Pharmaceutical Sciences. - Mr. Ahmed Tawfike, a PhD student and Ms. Daniela Chagas de Paula, an exchange post graduate student from Sao Paolo were both competetively selected for an oral presentation for the technical program of Biocom12 Congress of the Phytochemical Society of Europe that was held in Chiclana de la Frontera, Cádiz, 10-12 Sep., 2012. We congratulate Mr. Tawfike for receiving the best presentation award during the event. Both students are working with the Natural Products Metabolomics group headed by Dr. RuAngelie Edrada-Ebel.

Strathclyde, Scotland. - Prof. Fernando Batista Da Costa from the School of Pharmaceutical Sciences of Ribeirão Preto, Universidade de São Paulo, Brazil, as the first Brazilian researcher, has recently been selected for the Brazil chair professorship at WWU (Westfälische Wilhelms-Universität Münster, Germany), funded by the Brazilian CAPES (Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior). Professor Da Costa begins his six-month stay at the Institute of Pharmaceutical Biology and Phytochemistry (IPBP), WWU Muenster, on 5 Sep., 2012. Fernando Da Costa, former director of the Natural Products Division of the Brazilian Chemical Society, is one of Brazil's top natural products chemists and a member of the Research Network Natural Products against Neglected Diseases (ResNetNPND). In the course of his guest professorship at WWU he will work together with the group of Prof. Thomas Schmidt at IPBP, with a main focus on the in silico evaluation of the antiinfective potential of natural products against tropical neglected diseases.
