My student Lena Nuschy with her poster about anionic glycan arrays at #CGS2026, organised by @glyconet.bsky.social, in Canmore, Alberta. Lena appreciated the interest shown!

Day 2 of #CGS2026 was packed with 21 presenters and an engaging poster session, showcasing the incredible breadth of research happening in #glycomics and #glycoscience. The evening banquet was also a great opportunity to connect and continue conversations. #glycotime

Yesterday we kicked off #CGS2026! It's fantastic to see strong engagement from the #glycomics community with over 190 attendees gathered from across Canada and internationally. Looking forward to a great few days of science, discussion, and new ideas! #glycotime #glycoscience

We would like to thank our sponsors for their support of #CGS2026. Their contributions help make this event possible and support the exchange of research and ideas across the glycosciences.
