We are delighted to present the Chem Soc Rev themed issue on multivalent scaffolds in glycosciences .
Guest editors Olivier Renaudet and René Roy introduce the issue in their Editorial.
Multivalent interactions between carbohydrates and proteins are involved in major physiological and pathological processes. According to Renaudet and Roy, with the recent emergence of glycomics, the development of glycoclusters and glycodendrimers capable of mimicking the multivalent display of the cell surface glycocalix has become a major field of research due to their evident interest as diagnostic and therapeutic tool. 
This themed issue contains an excellent collection of Review Articles and Tutorial Reviews which highlights recent advances focused on the chemistry and applications of such multivalent glycosylated structures.
