The Frontiers at the Chemistry-Biology Interface Symposium (FCBIS) is an annual day-long event intended to highlight research in the mid-Atlantic region and provide an intimate environment to foster discussion at all levels. FCBIS is a joint venture of the University of Pennsylvania and the Wistar Institute, with the founding schools; University of Delaware, Johns Hopkins University, the University of Maryland College Park, and the University of Maryland Baltimore County.
