Glycans, often called the “third chain of life” after DNA and proteins, play essential roles in biological systems.
This symposium offers an opportunity to explore recent research and connect with scientists across disciplines through poster presentations and networking sessions.
The poster session will also feature the activities of J-GlycoNet, encouraging future collaborative research.
Explanations in Japanese will be available at the poster session.
