Introduction

The ISBOC series was inaugurated in 1986 in New York by Ronald Breslow and has since been organized biannually around the world. 
ISBOC-14 will offer an ideal context to discuss future trends in chemical research in the life sciences and to discuss new methodological approaches.
The symposium is structured in Plenary sessions, with 8 plenary lecturers among which the Nobel Laureate Frances Arnold, 3 parallel sessions with 24 keynote lectures, 24 Invited Lectures and 66 oral communications, and a poster session. Networking opportunities will also be stimulated and fostered by the social events organized in the vibrant city of Milan.
