Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to invite you to the 32nd International Carbohydrate Symposium, which will be held from 5 to 9 July 2026 in Bratislava, Slovakia.
ICS 2026 will bring together leading scientists, researchers, and students from around the world to share the latest advances in carbohydrate chemistry. With a rich scientific program featuring plenary lectures, invited talks, oral presentations, and poster sessions, the symposium offers an exceptional opportunity to exchange ideas, foster collaborations, and explore new frontiers in glycoscience.
Set against the charming backdrop of Bratislava ‒ at the crossroads of Central Europe and nestled along the Danube River ‒ ICS 2026 promises not only scientific excellence but also an inspiring and memorable experience.
We warmly invite you to join us in July 2026 and be part of this vibrant celebration of carbohydrate science.
We look forward to welcoming you to Slovakia.
