  • It was my pleasure to be part of the conference this year and I really appreciate the prize. The overall organization was excellent. I really liked how diverse the sessions were and the efforts to cover as many scientific topics as possible were very clear. I really liked the venue, having the coffee breaks outdoors in such a nice campus and beautiful weather was very refreshing. The organizers were on top of everything and they were always available to answer questions and solve problems. Overall, job well done.

Rakesh Kumar

  • Thank you for putting together another outstanding scientific meeting and exposing the participants to the leading experts in the areas of Drug Discovery and Therapy and Biotechnology. Most importantly, I was very impressed by the physical presence and an active participation of all Nobel Laureates and eminent scientists throughout the meeting and their interactions with the conference participants at-large. Overall, I enjoyed interacting with my younger colleagues from UAE and other parts of the world. I also noticed a highest level of professionalism on the part of the organizing committee as all logistic steps were executed flawlessly. Thank you for putting such an important Science Gathering in UAE.

Faikah Gueler
Hannover Medical School, Hannover, Germany

  • I enjoyed the conference. The quality of the academic sessions I attended was very mixed in terms data presentation and scientific results. The majority were excellent, but some were rather poor in terms of presentation (written slides full of text similar to a newspaper article on every slide.

Beka Solomon
University of Tel Aviv, Ramat Aviv, Israel

  • Many thanks for giving me the opportunity to attend the 6th ICDDT in Dubai. The scientific program was excellent, very diverse and well balanced bringing many novelties to the participants. The venue was equipped with all the international standards and very comfortable. On the social and personal sides, the atmosphere was very friendly and the handling efficient.

    I wish to congratulate and thank the organizing team for their efforts and achievements.

Fazlul Huq
The University of Sydney, Sydney, Australia

  • The conference was good as it brought together researchers on drug discovery and therapy from all over the world. The social events were also good,

    On a different matter, I would prefer the dinner on the boat than the one in the desert.

Debomoy K. Lahiri
Institute of Psychiatric Research, USA

  • I congratulate you for successfully organizing the just concluded and most exciting conference "3rd International Conference on Drug Discovery and Therapy". I deeply appreciate your hospitality as well all other hard working staff for making this meeting so successful, informative and memorable.

Prof. Antonio Gotto, Jr.
Lewis Thomas University, USA

  • I found the Drug Discovery and Therapy World Congress 2013 to be an exceptionally well organized and scientifically stimulating conference. The lectures were very engaging, conducted at a high level, and exposed me to a wide variety of relevant topics in drug discovery and pharmacotherapy.

Dr. Rathnam Chaguturu
University of Kansas, Lawrence, KS, USA

  • A fantastic conference of the highest caliber with ample opportunity to network with world-renowned scientists. A virtual 'high-five' to the conference organizers for their outstanding achievement in making this conference a grand success. I am already looking forward to next year's conference.
