DESCRIPTION:Prof. Jakub Svenda Masaryk University\, Czech Republic\nTitle:
  Reducing synthetic complexity of the bactobolin class of ribosome inhibit
 ors\n\nAbstract:\nNatural products remain an important source of bioactive
  molecules for basic research and drug discovery. Changes to the structure
  and consequently properties of many natural products\, notwithstanding th
 eir potential\, remain non-trivial by the currently available technologies
 \, including chemical synthesis. In this lecture\, I will describe how str
 ategic planning and ever-evolving synthetic methods helped us overcome the
  synthetic complexity of bactobolins\, an underexplored class of naturally
  occurring ribosome inhibitors. Simple access to synthetic bactobolins ena
 bles broad investigation of this natural product family.\n\nSpeaker's biog
