Investigating the Roles of Carbohydrates in Disease: Synthesis, Analysis and Biological Conjugation

The first meeting of the Gordon Research Seminar (GRS) on complex carbohydrates is a unique opportunity for young scientists (graduate students, post-docs, and early faculty) to present and exchange cutting-edge research and ideas in an environment mainly consisting of their direct peers.

Posters and talks presented at this GRS will focus on the study of carbohydrate chemistry and biology, looking at areas such as synthesis as well as glycans' behavior both in vivo and in silico, among many more. As a specific draw for younger scientists who are as of yet undecided of their future careers, this GRS features a Career Panel of successful members of both traditional and "non-traditional" science-related career paths.
