In April 2019, the USACICS submitted a proposal to host an ICS in the USA in 2040. This proposal will be considered at the next in-person meeting of the International Carbohydrate Organization during the XXX ICS in 2022.
In 2021, the USACICS is able to provide sponsorship to both CARB and CELL Divisions, as well as Gordon Research Conference on Carbohydrates.
The updated list of the Board of Directors of the USACICS is available below, and you are welcome to approach any of us with suggestions or comments. If you would like to be involved with the committee, please let me or your divisional representatives know.
With best wishes,
