DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Carolyn Bertozzi\nhosted by Anton Zeilinger\, Thomas H
 enzinger\nAbstract: We kindly invite you to the sixth edition of the ÖAW-
 IST Austria Lectures. The series is continued by an online talk of Carolyn
  Bertozzi\, Anne T. and Robert M. Bass Professor in the School of Humaniti
 es and Sciences and Professor\, by courtesy\, of Chemical and Systems Biol
 ogy and of Radiology at Stanford University.Abstract:Cell surface glycans 
 constitute a rich biomolecular dataset that drives both normal and patholo
 gical processes. Their “readers” are glycan-binding receptors that can
  engage in cell-cell interactions and cell signaling. Our research focuses
  on mechanistic studies of glycan/receptor biology and applications of thi
 s knowledge to new therapeutic strategies. Our recent efforts center on pa
 thogenic glycans in the tumor microenvironment and new therapeutic modalit
 ies based on the concept of targeted degradation.About the Speaker:Profess
 or Carolyn Bertozzi‘s research interests span the disciplines of chemist
 ry and biology with an emphasis on studies of cell surface sugars importan
 t to human health and disease. Her research group profiles changes in cell
  surface glycosylation associated with cancer\, inflammation and bacterial
  infection\, and uses this information to develop new diagnostic and thera
 peutic approaches\, most recently in the area of immuno-oncology. Named a 
 MacArthur Fellow in 1999\, Dr. Bertozzi has received many awards for her d
 edication to chemistry\, and to training a new generation of scientists fl
 uent in both chemistry and biology. She has been elected to the Institute 
 of Medicine\, National Academy of Sciences\, and American Academy of Arts 
 and Sciences\; and received the Lemelson-MIT Prize\, the Heinrich Wieland 
 Prize\, the ACS Award in Pure Chemistry\, and the Chemistry of the Future 
 Solvay Prize\, among others.How to participate:Please click the link to jo
