Foreword

The Organizers of the 8th edition of the Carbohydrate Bioengineering Meeting (CBM8) wish you the warmest welcome to Ischia!

From CBM1 in Elsinor (Denmark), and in the following meetings in La Rochelle, Newcastle, Stockholm, Groningen, Barcelona, and Braunschweig (2007), CBM series witnessed the tremendous expansion of glycosciences in the last fourteen years constantly growing and becoming a consolidated biennial interdisciplinary forum in glycobiology. In this tradition, CBM8 aims to show the updated state-of-the-art of research on basic and applied aspects of carbohydrate bioengineering, to stimulate the active exchange of scientific information between researchers from academia and industry, inspiring those already working in the field and young scientists approaching glycoscience.

CBM8 will include sessions on structural and functional analysis of sugars, glycoconjugates, and carbohydrate active enzymes, chemical and enzymatic synthesis of carbohydrates, glycomic, CAZymes and carbohydrate engineering, and applications of carbohydrates, glycoconjugates and carbohydrate active enzymes in health, nutrition, and biocatalysis.

The stimulating scientific program of CBM8, resulting from the outstanding response of more than 250 participants among researchers and industrial companies from all over the world, consists of 38 lectures and about 170 poster presentations. Posters will be on display during the whole conference to encourage you to actively participate in scientific discussion, to establish new collaborations, and, especially for young scientists, to find work opportunities in the glycobiology field.

We hope you will enjoy from a stimulating congress and our hospitality and we wish you all a pleasant and fruitful meeting!!!
