As the New Year sky lights up with fireworks🎇 we’re revisiting our recent post connecting those bright bursts to #stearicacid ✨

As Hanukkah commenced on December 25th, it seems like a perfect opportunity to revisit a previous Lipid of the Month (#LoM) from earlier this year: Triolein. Check it out at lipidmaps.org/updates/lipi...

🎄Warm Holiday Wishes from LIPID MAPS✨ As many celebrate Christmas or enjoy rest and reflection, we thank our global community. Whether you're marking a holiday, spending time with loved ones, or diving into research, we appreciate your dedication to lipidomics.

Missed our early December webinar with James Olzmann? Catch it here: www.lipidmaps.org/resources/ed... The webinar offered key insights into lipid metabolism and ferroptosis. Attendees learned about the impact of lipid droplets on cellular lipid balance and ferroptosis. #LipidDroplets #Lipidomics
