2026 IUPAC-Richter Prize—Call for Nominations
Abstract
IUPAC and Gedeon Richter, Plc. announce that the 2026 IUPAC-Richter Prize in Medicinal Chemistry will be presented during the 39th ACS National Medicinal Chemistry Symposium (31 May – 3 June 2026) in Atlanta, GA, United States and the recipient will also give a lecture on the subject of their research at the XXIXth EFMC International Symposium on Medicinal Chemistry (6–10 September 2026) in Basel, Switzerland.
The prize is to be awarded to an internationally recognized scientist, preferably a medicinal chemist, whose activities or published accounts have made an outstanding contribution to the practice of medicinal chemistry or to an outstanding example of new drug discovery.
The Prize, which includes a gift of USD 10000, has been established by a generous gift from the Chemical Works of Gedeon Richter, Plc. (Budapest, Hungary) to acknowledge the key role that medicinal chemistry plays toward improving human health.
Nominations are open till 15 December 2025.
