Welcome

Lipidomics is one of the fastest-growing omics disciplines, with applications spanning bioanalytical chemistry, lipid biochemistry, cell biology, biomedical research, and clinical translation. The rapid growth of the field is reflected in the increasing number of research projects that rely on mass spectrometry (MS)-based lipidomics as a core technology for enabling fundamental biological discoveries and generating clinically relevant insights into human disease.

At the same time, lipidomics remains a technically demanding discipline that requires specialized training to ensure accurate, reproducible, and robust data generation and interpretation.

To address these challenges and support advanced training in lipidomics methodologies for both early-career and senior scientists, we are pleased to announce the FEBS Practical & Lecture Course ‘Advanced Lipidomics Technologies to Study Lipid Biology’.

Through a combination of lectures, focused tutorials, interactive Q&A sessions, and practical laboratory training, participants will develop a comprehensive understanding of advanced lipidomics technologies and their broad applications in modern lipid research.

The course will take place from 24–28 May 2027 in Dresden (Germany), one of Europe’s leading centres for lipid research, and will be hosted by the Center for Membrane Biology and Lipid Research at Technical University Dresden.

Course Organizers

Prof. Dr. Maria Fedorova (Faculty of Medicine of TU Dresden, Germany)

Prof. Dr. Valerie (Cardiff University, UK)

Prof. Dr. Rosario Domingues (University of Aveiro, Portugal).
