AGS session at 2023 SFG Hawaii

AGS session at the 2023 Annual Meeting SFG Hawaii – Call for abstracts

One aim of the Australian Glycoscience Society is to establish collaborations to international Glycoscience organisations. As part of such bilateral efforts, the AGS has been invited to coordinate a session at the 2023 Annual meeting of the Society for Glycobiology (SFG). This session is intended to showcase Australian glycoscience research and foster international collaborative opportunities.

AGS is therefore calling for abstract submissions from current AGS members to contribute to an AGS-led session at the 2023 Annual Meeting of SFG, on Big Island, Hawaii, Nov 5-8, 2023. Up to five full-length talks will be competitively selected from submitted abstracts based on novelty, impact, and relevance to the field. Researchers from all areas of glycoscience are encouraged to submit abstracts. At least two abstracts submitted by early career researchers (PhD students or postdocs < 5 years post-PhD) will be chosen for oral presentation in the session in our mission to support the next generation of glycoscientists. Gender balance will be considered. Selected speakers must acknowledge the support from AGS in their talk (and in social media where possible).
