This timely symposium aims to investigate recent advancements concerning the lipid composition of various organelles, the characterization of specific intramembrane lipid-protein interactions, the regulation of lipid synthesis and transport and the development of tools such as photoactivatable and caged lipids.

Topics

• Intracellular lipid homeostasis
• Regulation of lipid synthesis and transport
• Protein-lipid interactions
• Functionalized lipids and novel tools to study lipids in cells
