Welcome to the members-only online meeting place of the Consortium for Functional Glycomics.
The goal of the CFG is to define the paradigms by which protein-carbohydrate interactions mediate cell communication. We strive to achieve this by working with the scientific community to create unique resources and services that you, as Participating Investigators, can utilize in your own research. The data that result are uploaded into public databases for the benefit of the entire community.
In the spirit of communication and teamwork, we invite you to join your CFG subgroup(s) in our online forums.
(Click here to see the overall organization of CFG subgroups or find your own previously self-assigned groups.)1. Microorganism recognition of host glycans
2. Immune recognition of glycans
3. Glycans in immune cell communication
4. Glycans in development and physiology
5. Glycans in cancer biology
6. Glycans in protein conformation and function
7. Analytical glycomics
8. Chemical synthesis and glycan microarrays
9. 3-D Structural glycobiology
10. BioinformaticsTo maintain the focus of these groups, we ask that post-docs and graduate students in labs of CFG Participating Investigators take part in the forums by forming one profile for the entire lab. Individuals can then identify themselves when they post.
