Welcome to the Complex Carbohydrate Research Center (CCRC) at the University of Georgia.

The CCRC occupies an ~140,000 sq.ft. building specifically designed for the interdisciplinary and equipment-intensive nature of carbohydrate science. The Center is organized to optimize cooperation and collaboration among disciplines (biomedical glycoscience, plant and microbial glycoscience, synthetic and analytical chemistry), and to provide analytical services and training, both within the CCRC and to university, government, and industrial laboratories world-wide. Our faculty have research programs that span multiple research domains, which provide our students with a breadth of opportunities in their professional training and research.

CONGRATULATIONS!!

The CCRC takes on the challenge of extending research, training, and science education with a BioFoundry Program.

The National Science Foundation awarded $18M to a team at the CCRC to initiate the BioFoundry: Glycoscience Resources, Education, and Training (BioF:GREAT) Program, which will provide more glycoscience tools at the research bench, source material in the classroom, training in mentorship and analytical techniques, and glycoscience education to more learning communities.

Investigators include Lance Wells, Kelley Moremen, Erin Dolan, Breanna Urbanowicz, Natarajan Kannan, Parastoo Azadi. All are posing with CCRC/CMM Joint-Director Michael Tiemeyer.
