Dear Friends,
I hope you and your family are doing well and keeping safe.
The past two years have been diﬃcult for us individually and as a community.
However, we have learned, adapted, changed, and created several opportunities,
that made us stronger, ﬂexible, and adapting to the changes.
Our SSX-2021 virtual conference was a true example of ﬂexibility and adapting tothe changes. In addition, SSX-India also focused on its mission of 'increasingawareness and developing the knowledge of DMPK/ADMET science byconducting online courses.
This time, I am extremely happy to announce our next big event, 7th Asia-Paciﬁc
ISSX meeting, as an on-site meeting, at Hotel Grand Sheraton, Bangalore, India
from 29th January to 01st February 2023. Theme of this meeting is 'Innovative
approaches in translational ADMET science for accelerating drug discovery anddevelopment'. In addition to an excellent scientiﬁc program, the event also
provides a variety of opportunities for students and young researchers toshowcase their scientiﬁc work in oral and poster presentations. It also helps themto seek guidance from mentorship program.
I am honored to be the conference chair for the last four years and excited that I getto participate in shaping it. If you too want to be part of the evolution, please do nothesitate to come forward to join our committee. We need your input andcollaboration to create the future of our SSX-India together!

On a personal level, I am thrilled to have an opportunity tovisit India, a place I've never been and have always wanted to experience. So, inaddition to the good science, I'm looking forward to sampling a cuisine I've always
enjoyed but not had in its true native country—and maybe I'll even get a chance tosee a Bollywood ﬁlm in a real Indian movie theater instead of streaming it!
See you there.
