Introduction
Cracking the Sugar Code by Navigating the Glycospace
This Symposium aims to bring together those scientists that “produce” data with those that “use” the data and make it available to the community. Data mining, structure prediction and docking of carbohydrates, as well as web-based services to combine proteomics and glycomics data for structure-function research and glycosylation analysis will be covered.
After the first Symposium held October 2009 has served as a first chance to bring the stakeholders in the area of Glycomics together and to discuss the role of bioinformatics, the 2nd meeting continued the efforts to pave the way to integrate glyco-bioinformatics in a universal platform that will serve biologists, chemists and all interested in glycosciences.
