We
are working at developing novel synthetic methodologies in the field of
carbohydrate chemistry and applying these to the synthesis of
complex glycoconjugates and glycans (oligosaccharides, glycolipids,
glycoproteins,
etc.) of biological and medicinal interests that could be used as
therapeutics, diagnostics,
vaccines and adjuvants. We also have a strong interest in the isolation
and synthesis of bioactive natural products. We are based at Centre
Armand-Frappier, Institut national de la recherche scientifique (
INRS)
in
Laval (Québec), Canada.
