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.

项目概要 碳水化合物在自然界中普遍存在。它们整合在许多重要的生理和病理中 从炎症到微生物感染和肿瘤发展的事件。随着越来越多 了解它们的关键功能、碳水化合物化学和糖生物学是令人兴奋的活跃领域 现代研究前沿的研究。由于糖科学工具的发展落后于重组蛋白 表达和 DNA 扩增，了解碳水化合物如何参与重要的生物过程 流程远没有那么先进。尽管在各个领域都取得了重大进展 过去二十年碳水化合物的研究仍然存在重大空白有待填补。 2023年碳水化合物 戈登研究会议（GRC）和戈登研究研讨会（GRS）将汇集经验丰富的 具有不同背景和专业知识的专家和新兴新/年轻研究人员，特别是女性和 代表性不足的少数群体，提出未来方向的前沿方法和对话思路，重点关注 用于转化碳水化合物科学的糖生物学、糖化学和糖材料。一个特别的 GRC 的部分将专门讨论 COVID19 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疾病中的作用以及糖疗法的前景。全面的， 为期 4.5 天的会议将有 32 位受邀演讲者、13 位讨论领袖和 100 多张海报。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- 专门为早期职业科学家、博士后和研究生（包括女性和女性）举办的日活动 代表性不足的少数群体。 GRS 的与会者将参加口头演讲、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之外， 2023 年 GRC 和 GRS 将吸引和整合具有平衡性别和少数族裔代表性的科学家 来自世界各地的不同职业阶段在友好的环境中进行现场会议，开放 讨论、非正式的社交互动和休闲活动。这些对于增强 相互理解、促进协作、建立友情和社区意识， 使碳水化合物领域能够共同应对人类健康和面临的一些重大挑战 疾病治疗/预防。
