Dear colleagues,

It is my pleasure to welcome you on behalf of the International Board of the Blue Danube Symposia on Heterocyclic Chemistry! These meetings were initiated over 30 years ago as regional event of Austrian, Czech, Hungarian, and Slovakian scientists, later also welcoming Slovenian colleagues, and grew rapidly into a biannual international symposium series. Besides the prestigious lineup of invited speakers these meetings provided a unique opportunity to meet friends and fellow scientists of the "Blue Danube countries", in particular for the younger generations. During the recent epidemic we decided to launch a virtual event for young scientists to be able to showcase their results. The 1st Blue Danube PhD Symposium took place on the 4th February, 2022, showcasing 2 presenters from each Blue Danube country. Following the positive reception 2 years ago we decided to launch its second edition that will take place in June. We invited an international jury who will select the winners of the Symposium prize, which comes with an invitation to participate to this year’s 20th Blue Danube Symposium (25-28 August, Prague) and give an oral presentation.

I am looking forward to welcoming you as a presenter or in the audience of the meeting! Please don’t forget to register so that you’d receive the conference link!
