The Sialic Acid Program (SAP)

The Sialic Acid Program (SAP) is a research initiative focused on understanding and developing therapies involving sialic acids, which are complex sugars found on the surface of cells and proteins. These sugars play important roles in cell signaling, immune response, and pathogen recognition. SAP aims to study how sialic acids influence health and disease, with the goal of creating new treatments for conditions like infections, cancer, and immune disorders. By advancing knowledge of sialic acid biology, SAP seeks to develop innovative strategies to improve medical outcomes.
