Outline of Final Research Achievements

This “innovative area” program was aimed at elucidating regulatory mechanisms of the cascade which consists of functional domains in glycans, receptors, downstream molecular events, and integrative neural functions. Furthermore, we aimed to develop a new research area “glyco-neuroscience” through integration and collaboration between glycobiology and neurobiology.
We promoted tight and complementary collaborations within a variety of scientists from glycobiology and neurobiology. Based on (1) research collaboration (2) international activities (3) promotion of young scientists and (4) outreach activities, we could conclude that our activities promoted and contributed to the establishment of a new research area “glyco-neuroscience”.
