Introduction

The PhysChem Forum Committee are pleased to announce our tenth Physical Chemistry Symposium to be held at Syngenta, Jealott’s Hill International  Research Centre , Bracknell, Berks, RG42 6EY, UK on Wednesday 23rd March 2011.

This symposium will have a general theme of hydrogen bonding and other experimentally based molecular descriptors - and their application to ADME related issues and chemical design
