Glycobiology & Glycochemistry

Glyco-Bioinformatics

Glycobiology and Glycochemistry are the two main intertwined areas of Glycosciences, dealing with various aspects of glycans, including carbohydrate structure, biochemistry, biological functions and applications. This is necessary in order to sustain and advance the identification of key glycobiological aspects and the application of glycans and glyco-engineering strategies in the design of novel therapies to improve human health. Drug targeting is important for our understanding of human health and disease, and for the development of new therapeutic strategies.
