Welcome to the 14th edition of the renowned Carbohydrate Bioengineering Meeting (CBM), which will be held in Norefjell close to Oslo, 25 - 28 September 2022.
We also hosted a digital conference 31 May and 1 June 2021. The filmed presentations from the digital conference are presented under Digital conference May 31 - June 1, 2021.
Carbohydrate Bioengineering is recognized today as a pillar of biotechnology and biological engineering. It offers major assets to face many of our modern life challenges, promote innovative medical treatments or elaborate functional food, biopharmaceuticals, active cosmetics, biomaterials, to name just a few. In particular, researches in glycobiology, multi-omic data integration, structure/function relationships, enzyme engineering, biocatalysis, biophysics and process development are key drivers to expand opportunities in this field. More than ever, knowledge between carbohydrate players must be shared and crossing and bridging the disciplinary boundaries are essential to open new horizons of developments for the benefit of all. This will be the objective of CBM14.
In keeping with the previous CBMs, the conference will bring together glycoscientists coming from all over the world to share their latest findings and most exciting achievements in a friendly and warm atmosphere. Experts from research institutions or private companies will open each session, which will be followed by presentations selected from submitted abstracts.
We will present the following topics in addition to excellent opening and closing lectures:
1. Mechanisms, structure-function relationships, and dynamics of CAZymes
2. Carbohydrate structure & complex carbohydrate-based matrices
3. Omics and CAZyme discovery
4. Polysaccharide metabolism & carbohydrate transport
5. Carbohydrate degrading communities
6. Enzymes for carbohydrate synthesis and modification
7. Glycobiotechnologies
8. CAZyme engineering and computer-assisted design
9. Carbohydrate esterases
10. Auxiliary activities redox enzymes
