After a long break due to Covid-19 restrictions we are finally able to welcome the community back together for our first in-person event. The 澳门六合彩开奖记录 Carbohydrate Interest Group have teamed up with the Medicinal Chemistry branch of the Institute of Chemistry Ireland to bring you a conference focused on the Applications of Carbohydrates with a focus on medicinal chemistry, biotechnology and materials on the 21st-22nd November '22 at The Great Hall, Queen's University Belfast, Northern Ireland.
The conference will cover topics across the glycosciences, with a particular focus on medicinal chemistry, biotechnology, and materials science. It will feature an excellent line up of speakers from the UK, Ireland and beyond, including 2 Dextra Award lectures from Dr Tracey Gloster 2019 and Prof Gavin Miller 2021, as well as ample networking opportunities, including a dedicated Early Career Researcher session.
If you wish to take part in the poster session or be considered for an ECR oral presentation, please send an abstract to a.ni.cheallaigh@keele.ac.uk by Friday the 14th of October (abstract: Calibri body size 11, 300 character word limit and images limited to one figure). A number of ECR travel bursaries of up to 拢250 have been kindly provided by our sponsors. If you wish to be considered for these travel bursaries please indicate this when submitting your abstract.
We are looking forward to welcoming the community back to in-person events and hope you will join us. If you would like to attend the conference dinner please select the Add-On when purchasing your tickets.
