Predicting the stereochemical outcome of glycosylations is a complex problem.
In his talk at #Lunteren2026, Daan Hoogers from the group of Jeroen Codee of our @led3hub.bsky.social presented his research into the systematic exploration of this question.

Excellent #OrganicSynthesis is the basis of many #ChemBio projects. Nevertheless, we often do not present much of our synthesis.
I am excited to be at the Dutch Symposium on Organic Chemistry #Lunteren2026, where synthesis will take the center stage.
#ChemSky #OrganicChemistry #Science #Conference
Getting started with a full week of #Science #conferences. I will be at #Lunteren2026 and #KNCVMCCB2026 by the #KNCV and at #Biochemistry2026 by @gdchbiochem.bsky.social. Looking forward to learning about exciting science and (re-)connecting with many scientists.
