DESCRIPTION:Join the Lloyd “Holly” Smith Distinguished Lecture for a scient
 ific presentation—Targeting the Glycocalyx for Cancer Immune Therapy—by ren
 owned scientist and Nobel laureate Carolyn Bertozzi. \n\nBertozzi’s lab exp
 lores glycobiology\, profiling changes in cell surface sugars and using the
  information to develop new diagnostic and therapeutic approaches for diver
 se diseases\, with applications from COVID-19 infection to immuno-oncology.
 \n\nJoin this special event to honor the late Holly Smith for his visionary
  leadership and hear about Bertozzi’s transformative research.\n\nAbout the
  Speaker\n\nCarolyn Bertozzi is the Baker Family Director of Sarafan ChEM-H
  at Stanford University\, the Anne T. and Robert M. Bass Professor in the S
 chool of Humanities and Sciences\, and an investigator at Howard Hughes Med
 ical Institute.\n\nBertozzi is the inventor of “bioorthogonal chemistry\,” 
 a class of chemical reactions that enable scientists to study molecules ins
 ide living organisms without interfering with biological processes. Her gro
 up also developed new therapeutic modalities for targeted degradation of ex
 tracellular biomolecules\, such as antibody-enzyme conjugates and Lysosome 
 Targeting Chimeras (LYTACs). As well\, her group studies NGly1 deficiency\,
  a rare genetic disease characterized by loss of the human N-glycanase.\n\n
 Named a MacArthur Fellow in 1999\, Bertozzi has received many awards for he
 r dedication to chemistry and to training a new generation of scientists fl
 uent in both chemistry and biology. She has been elected to the Institute o
 f Medicine\, the National Academy of Sciences\, and the American Academy of
  Arts and Sciences. In 2022\, she received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for
  her development of click chemistry and bioorthogonal chemistry. She has al
 so been honored with the Lemelson-MIT Prize\, the Heinrich Wieland Prize\, 
 the ACS Award in Pure Chemistry\, and the Chemistry of the Future Solvay Pr
 ize\, among others.\n\nThe Lloyd “Holly” Smith Distinguished Lecture brings
  nationally and internationally recognized scientific leaders to Gladstone 
 to share their novel research discoveries with our community. Gladstone has
  hosted the Distinguished Lecture Series since 1993. In 2014\, the series w
 as renamed to honor Lloyd H. ‟Holly” Smith\, Jr.\, who served as a valuable
  advisor to Gladstone for many years.
