The meeting focused on introduction and personal acquaintance, every member presented their research and methods used in their lab we discussed the similar and different aspects of smell and taste research. We then discussed the pros and cons for different research methods - In-vitro, In-vivo and In-silico. We also discussed the use of High-throughput structure based docking and ligand based screening and compared In-vitro methods used in the different labs such as calcium assays, Oocytes transfomations and expression of mRNA and sensory experiments with a sensory taste panel.

We also had the opportunity to discuss the different databases we use to search chemical properties and purchasable compounds:
