Centre de recherches sur les macromolécules végétales

CERMAV, a CNRS research unit (UPR 5301), will celebrate its 60th anniversary in 2026. For more than half a century, the laboratory has kept pace with societal changes by renewing and enriching its scientific themes. With historical fundamental research focused on cellulose and lignin, then on economically important plant polysaccharides, CERMAV’s themes now address various fields of glycoscience, including the synthesis or bioproduction of biologically active oligosaccharides, studies devoted to proteins involved in the processes of synthesis, degradation, modification, or recognition of sugars, the use of biomass as a source of renewable materials, neo-glycopolymers, materials for energy or health, bio-inspired materials, and more.
