The MIRAGE Commission consists of three groups which tightly interact with each other.
The advisory board consists of leading scientists in glycobiology, who, for example, critically review the outcomes of the working group and promote the reporting guidelines within the community.
The working group seeks for external consultation and directly interacts with the glycomics community. The group members carry out defined subprojects (e.g. development and revision of guidelines) by focusing on specific research areas to fulfill the overall aims of the MIRAGE project.
The co-ordination team links the subprojects from the working group together and passes the outcomes to the advisory board for review.
