Past meetings have been held in Wroclaw, Poland, 2004 and Rostock, Germany, 2006 which proved to be good venues for bringing together European researchers, especially those from the Baltic area, to exchange and discuss recent advances in microbial carbohydrate science. This time, plenary lectures will be about state-of-the-art analytical techniques, LPS biosynthesis, carbohydrate synthesis correlated to immunology and vaccines and bacterial polysaccharides of industrial importance. We cordially invite you to participate and contribute to the meeting with an oral presentation. Attendance will be limited to 100 participants.


We look forward to seeing you in Sigtuna.
