Dr. Gerrit J. Gerwig earned his Ph.D. degree in Bio-Organic Chemistry from Utrecht University, The Netherlands. During 40 years, he was involved in Glycobiology and Carbohydrate Research at Utrecht University, together with Prof. Dr. JFG Vliegenthart and Prof. Dr. JP Kamerling. Thereafter, during 10 years, he had a guest position as carbohydrate researcher in the group of Prof. Dr. L Dijkhuizen at the University of Groningen, The Netherlands. At this moment, he is associated with CarbExplore Research BV, a glycobiotechnology company in Groningen. He has published over 150 peer-reviewed scientific papers in international journals and several chapters in different books on glycoscience.
