Focusing on the frontier of in vivo chemical biology, this Symposium will explore how chemists and biologists are contributing concepts and tools to our understanding of the molecular basis of cell biology. In a series of five scientific sessions across two days, an international panel of speakers will examine cell biology "from the inside-out".
