Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to invite you to the 16th Jenner Glycobiology and Medicine Symposium, organised by at Maynooth University in Ireland, taking place from June 11th to 13th, 2025.

The Jenner Glycobiology and Medicine symposia were the first and main international multidisciplinary conferences set up to study the relevance of glycobiology to immunology, medicine and clinical practice. The symposia have been organised, since 1990, in collaboration with the Royal Society of Medicine with the aim of widening clinical participation and to actively promote and foster fruitful interaction and collaboration between glycobiologists and clinicians.

The 16th Jenner Glycobiology and Medicine symposium aims to provide an international forum for scientists and clinicians to disseminate the findings of current leading-edge research in the field of glycobiology. The program is devoted to addressing and integrating different aspects of glycobiology in physiological and pathological settings, including immunology, infection, cancer and neurological disorders. In addition to internationally renowned speakers, a number of poster and oral presentations will be selected from the submitted abstracts, creating a stimulating discussion platform to address current and future challenges of glycobiology and glycotechnology.

We look forward to welcoming you to the historic town of Maynooth. We sincerely hope you will enjoy the conference and find it both enlightening and gratifying.

Dr. Róisín O’Flaherty
Conference Chair
