On behalf of the Organizing Committee, we are pleased to invite you to participate in the International Symposium: Science as a Tool for Innovation, event that will be held virtually on September 27 th 2021, as part of
the activities of the Pharmacy and Biochemistry Week of the School of
Pharmaceutical Sciences - University of São Paulo (FCF-USP).
In the last years, we are facing a worldwide movement against science and
financial resources for scientific development are getting scarce. On the other
hand, the actual moment of Covid-19 pandemic shows us the importance of
strong and well-based scientific policies to reach significant innovation and
contribute to human wealth. Therefore, it is of utmost importance that the
scientific community work together to strength science for innovation, as well as
to improve our capabilities by sharing cutting-edge research.
The meeting will bring together national and international leading scientists to
present and discuss the latest discoveries and trends in Pharmaceutical
Sciences and related areas. The event will count on lectures by renowned
researchers working on themes related to the two main sections, namely
“Innovation in drugs and therapies” and “Academic research and clinical
translation”, as well as opportunities for students and young researchers to
present and discuss their works.

We look forward to welcoming you on September, at the Symposium!
Prof. Carlota Rangel Yagui and Prof. Sandra Farsky
