Sayani Roy Chowdhury Thursday, November 7, 2019 - 11:15am Chemistry Building, Room 400 Organic Seminar Carbohydrates are the most abundant molecules among the four essential classes of biomolecules that also include nucleic acids, lipids, and proteins. Unlike proteins and nucleic acids, which follow template-driven synthetic pathways, there is no general route to the synthesis of carbohydrates. This literature seminar will focus on the commonly used methods to synthesize oligosaccharides and the gradual movement of the field towards automation.
