Finding the Sweet Spot on the Journey towards Carbohydrate-Based Drugs

Over the past two decades, Prof. em. Beat Ernst not only

shaped the renowned research and teaching programs at the Department of Pharmaceutical Sciences of the University of Basel but also made seminal contributions to carbohydratefocused chemistry, biology and drug discovery. Even after his emeritation in December 2016, Beat Ernst is still actively supporting the department and the university in many aspects.

Together with fellow scientists, colleagues, students and family, we want to celebrate and acknowledge Beat Ernst’s many formidable contributions to science, medicine, and education.
