WP 4 : Communication and training | GlycoAlps

WP 4 will act for the visibility of Glyco@Alps at the national and international level. Attraction of talented PhD students will be based on the implementation of a strong community of young glyco-scientists, with international visibility. WP6 activity will also be transversal to the other WPs for the organisation of summer-schools and scientific symposia with partners of the European network of glyco-centers of excellence that will be established during the project.
