Project Summary Carbohydrates are ubiquitous in nature. They are integrated in many important physiological and pathological events ranging from inflammation to microbial infections and tumor development. With the increasing appreciation of their critical functions, carbohydrate chemistry and glycobiology are exciting areas of active research at the frontiers of modern research. As glycoscience tool development lags behind recombinant protein expression and DNA amplification, understanding how carbohydrates are involved in important biological processes is much less advanced. Although significant advances have been achieved in various areas of carbohydrate research in the past two decades, there are still major gaps to be filled. The 2023 Carbohydrates Gordon Research Conference (GRC) and Gordon Research Seminar (GRS) will bring together experienced experts and emerging new/young investigators with diverse backgrounds and expertise, especially women and underrepresented minorities, to present frontier methods and dialog ideas for future directions focusing on Glycobiology, Glycochemistry and Glycomaterials for translational carbohydrate-based science. A special section of the GRC will be dedicated to the COVID19 pandemic with corresponding discussions aimed at further understanding of the role of glycans in this awful disease and the promising leads for glyco-therapeutics. Overall, the 4.5-day conference will feature 32 invited speakers, 13 discussion leaders and over 100 posters. This GRC conference is expected to draw 200 total participants. In conjunction with the GRC, the 2023 GRS will be a 1.5- day event dedicated to early career scientists, post-docs and graduate students including women and underrepresented minorities. Attendees of the GRS will participate in oral presentations, career panels, workshops, and poster presentations to aid in career developments. In addition to exciting cutting-edge science, the 2023 GRC and GRS will engage and integrate scientists with balanced gender and minority representation at different career stages from all over the world in a friendly environment with on-site meetings, open discussions, informal social interactions, and leisure activities. These will be extremely valuable in enhancing mutual understanding, fostering collaboration, and building up the camaraderie and sense of community to enable the carbohydrate field to collectively tackle some of the grand challenges facing human health and disease treatment/prevention.

项目摘要 碳水化合物在自然界中无处不在。它们与许多重要的生理和病理过程相结合， 从炎症到微生物感染和肿瘤发展。的增加 由于对它们的关键功能的认识，碳水化合物化学和糖生物学是活跃的研究领域， 现代研究前沿的研究。由于糖科学工具开发落后于重组蛋白 表达和DNA扩增，了解碳水化合物如何参与重要的生物学过程， 工艺就不那么先进了。虽然在各个领域取得了重大进展， 在过去的二十年里，碳水化合物的研究仍然存在重大空白。2023碳水化合物 戈登研究会议（GRC）和戈登研究研讨会（GRS）将汇集经验丰富的 专家和具有不同背景和专门知识的新的/年轻的调查人员，特别是妇女， 代表性不足的少数民族，提出前沿方法和对话的想法，为未来的方向，重点是 糖生物学，糖化学和糖材料转化为碳水化合物为基础的科学。一个特殊 GRC的一节将专门讨论COVID 19大流行，并进行相应的讨论，旨在进一步 了解聚糖在这种可怕的疾病中的作用，以及糖疗法的前景。总的来说， 为期四天半的研讨会将邀请三十二位讲者，十三位讨论领袖及超过一百张海报。这个GRC 会议预计将吸引200名与会者。与GRC一起，2023年GRS将是1.5- 一天的活动，专门为早期职业科学家，博士后和研究生，包括妇女和 代表性不足的少数民族。GRS的与会者将参加口头报告，职业小组， 研讨会和海报展示，以帮助职业发展。除了令人兴奋的尖端科学， 2023年GRC和GRS将吸引和整合性别和少数民族代表平衡的科学家 来自世界各地的不同职业阶段的人在友好的环境中进行现场会议， 讨论，非正式的社会交往和休闲活动。这些将是非常宝贵的，在提高 相互了解，促进合作，建立同志情谊和社区意识， 使碳水化合物领域能够共同应对人类健康面临的一些重大挑战， 疾病治疗/预防。
