ABSTRACT
The French Society of Medicinal Chemistry or " Société de Chimie Thérapeutique " (SCT) was founded in 1966. Since its inception, its mission has been to promote knowledge in the main fields of pharmaceutical research and development, in particular the research and validation of biological targets of therapeutic interest, the screening, design and optimization of drug candidates, chemical biology, medicinal chemistry, pharmacokinetics, metabolism and toxicity. Since 1964, the Society has organized an annual international congress (RICT), and later thematic days for young researchers and workshops on specific topics. The SCT is also a member of the European Federation for Medicinal Chemistry (EFMC) and organized the International Symposium on Medicinal Chemistry (ISMC) in Nice in 2022. Several new trends can be identified in the activities of the SCT, such as the organization of regular webinars, but also the recent creation of the Young MedChem Forum, as well as the distribution of a newsletter reporting scientific achievements in the French community and abroad, and an improved presence on social networks. These trends are in line with the current changes in the field in terms of scientific progress, means of communication in the community and with the public and inclusiveness.
