This project is in collaboration with the Joint Usage/Research Center “Glyco Science Cooperative Network (J-GlycoNet)” , which started in FY2022. Glycosciensts from all over Japan are participating in J-GlycoNet as Collaborative Fellows to promote collaborative research on glycans with Japan and foreign countries under an all-Japan structure.
