Cambridge Glycoscience Institute

The Cambridge Glycoscience Institute is a research center at the University of Cambridge dedicated to studying glycans—complex sugars found on proteins and cell surfaces. These sugars play vital roles in health and disease, including immune response, cancer, and infectious diseases. The institute brings together scientists from various disciplines to understand how glycans function and explore new ways to diagnose, treat, and prevent illnesses. Through advanced technology and collaboration, it aims to unlock the potential of glycoscience for medical and technological innovations.
