Today’s show was a great chance to share some of the highlights in the news these days. I selected a few articles to dissect and share the overall theme from each. By selecting a few articles every couple weeks, I think I am able to share some insight to the writings while braking up the monotony of reading my blog. I started out with an article from Science Daily. Titled: Sugar Linkage could lead to better treatment for autoimmune diseases. Next I covered an article that highlighted an initiative with the University of New Hampshire Glycomics center and their business school. It’s always great to see collaboration and involvement among the students of different departments! Moving on, I covered a new research abstract that has recently received a little press. Titled: Breast cancer diagnosis and prognosis through quantitative measurements of serum glycan profiles. Having come off our last interview with Yehia Mechref, I thought it would be perfect to cover an in-depth project which studied ways for early diagnosis of cancers. Finally I finished with a few accolades in the news from awards to positions additional grants. Now that’s what I like to see in the press!!! . Take an opportunity to listen to the pod cast of this week’s audio blog, and catch a glimpse into the breadth of the science of Glycomics. I think you will like it. www.Impactofglycomics.com
