This Department is offering the Common Fund Program – Accelerating Translation of Glycoscience: Integration and Accessibility grant to develop new tools and technologies for the synthesis of biomedically relevant carbohydrates. The aim is to advance the understanding of carbohydrate roles in health and disease by providing accessible and affordable methods for studying complex molecules. This grant supports the development of catalytic methods, chemical/chemo-enzymatic methods, and technologies to enable the rapid, robust, and affordable synthesis, and/or functionalization of mammalian and microbial glycans and glyco-conjugates.

Description: | The Common Fund Program – Accelerating Translation of Glycoscience: Integration and Accessibility – aims to develop accessible and affordable new tools and technologies for studying carbohydrates that will allow biomedical researchers to significantly advance our understanding of the roles of these complex molecules in health and disease. This program will enable investigators who might not otherwise conduct research in the glycosciences, to undertake the study of carbohydrate structure and function. In support of these aims, this FOA is intended to develop new approaches (catalytic methods, chemical/chemo-enzymatic methods, and technologies) to facilitate the rapid, robust, and affordable synthesis, and/or functionalization of bio-medically relevant glycans and glyco-conjugates representing 1) mammalian glycomes and 2) microbial glycans. |
