It will be a great pleasure and privilege to welcome you to the 6th European Conference on Chemistry for Life Sciences (6th ECCLS), which will be held in Lisboa, Portugal, on June 10-12, 2015.

Lisbon meeting will be sixth in a series – after Rimini (2005), Wroclaw (2007), Frankfurt (2009), Budapest (2011) and Barcelona (2013) – and will put together scientists from different backgrounds in order to facilitate translation of knowledge between chemistry and biology.

This conference is an activity of the EuCheMS (European Association for Chemical and Molecular Sciences) Division of Chemistry in Life Sciences.

We would also like to invite you to enjoy Lisbon, during the celebration of Lisbon Patron Sto Antonio's day. Lisbon is multicultural city, spread across seven hillsides that overlook the river Tagus and the Atlantic sea. The city has several Gothic cathedrals, majestic monasteries and several museums, composing a colorful cityscape, but a visit is not complete without wandering the narrow lanes of Lisbon’s lovely backstreets.

We are looking forward to meeting you at 6th ECCLS and hope this will be a fruitful and pleasant scientific event.
