FACILITY MANAGEMENT / EXPERTISE:
My laboratory works are mainly focusing on the synthesis of biologically active oligosaccharides to support GRC glycan array research programs. A long term goal is to establish a representative glycan library with sufficiently structural complexity and diversity to meet the demand. At present, I am maintaining a small but steadily growing collection of carbohydrate antigens to support glycan array development, such as early diagnosis of infectious diseases and cancers. I also collaborate with researchers in the area of carbohydrate-based vaccine development and glycopeptides synthesis.
