With a total of 17 million euros, we and our collaborators will built infrastructure to research glycobiology, gaining a better understanding of protein glycosylation and offering insights into disease mechanisms to improve therapeutic medicines.
The main applicant for BioBeyond_NL is prof. dr. Ron Heeren of Maastricht University.
