Geertekerk, Utrecht
We are happy to invite you to the 4th edition of the Glycoscience NL symposium on Friday June 19 in Utrecht @ De Geertekerk
Glycoscience covers a broad range of scientific disciplines. Glycobiologists are currently gathered under the NVBMB (Netherlands Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology), and Glycochemists under the KNCV (Royal Netherlands Chemical Society). Since the interaction among the experts from both communities is instrumental for future discoveries, we have set up an annual meeting series to stimulate such interactions and showcase the diversity within the Glycoscience domain.
Our confirmed keynote speakers for this year are Prof. dr. Geert-Jan Boons (Utrecht University) and dr. June Ereño Orbea (CIC bioGUNE, Bilbao).
Following the success of last year: Bring a poster for the poster session! Please indicate if you want to bring a poster during registration.
The program will last from 9:00 to 17:30, including a lunch, a poster session, and an end-of-day reception with drinks, snacks and a pub quiz!
The registration deadline is June 10. We look forward to meeting you on June 19, so please register! Feel free to forward this information to anyone interested.
