User Group Meeting
Date & Time
- June 8th-10th, 2027
Location
- Brussels, Belgium
Join us in Brussels, Belgium, from June 8–10, 2027 as we celebrate the 25th edition of the Schrödinger European User Group Meeting.
The meeting is designed for scientists working in computational chemistry, medicinal chemistry, drug discovery, and informatics, with a focus on the latest advances shaping computational molecular design. The program will explore how physics-based modeling, AI, and emerging computational approaches are being used to tackle real-world discovery challenges, while creating opportunities to exchange ideas with peers and gain new perspectives on where the field is heading.
Beyond the scientific program, you’ll also have time to enjoy Brussels, a vibrant European capital where history, culture, and contemporary city life come together. Our venue, Hilton Brussels Grand Place, is located in the heart of the city, just steps from the iconic Grand-Place and within easy reach of Brussels’ main sights.
Event Highlights
Meeting Details
The meeting will begin on Tuesday, June 8 in the morning and conclude on Thursday, June 10 in the early afternoon. We recommend arriving on Monday, June 7 so you don’t miss the opening sessions.
The meeting will include two parallel tracks:
- Small molecule modeling
- Biologics design
All sessions are open to all participants. During registration, we’ll simply ask you to indicate your main area of interest to help us with event logistics.
