Dear Friends and Colleagues,

We are delighted to invite you to Vienna, Austria, from 6-11th of September 2026 for the 38th European Peptide Symposium, set in the historic and vibrant heart of the city. Hosted by the University of Vienna, the symposium will take place in the University’s main building located at Vienna’s most beautiful boulevard, the ‘Ringstrasse’, home to many of the city’s famous landmarks, museums, grand palaces, and sprawling parks. The conference will be set at two venues: the Auditorium Maximum (a newly renovated historic lecture hall from the 19th century with a capacity of >1000 people) and the ‘Arkadenhof’, the arcaded courtyard that forms the architectural centerpiece of the universities main building.

This symposium will explore the full spectrum of peptide science, encompassing cutting-edge synthetic methods, innovative technologies, computational tools, as well as structural and conformational studies, with a special emphasis on material, biological, and therapeutic applications. Our program will feature oral presentations from both distinguished and emerging scientists, with a particular focus on supporting young investigators. Additionally, there will be ample opportunities for poster presentations and exhibitors to showcase their work.

Vienna’s rich cultural heritage and lively atmosphere will provide the perfect backdrop for our social events, offering attendees a unique blend of history, art, and modernity.

We look forward to welcoming you to Vienna!
