Training Cycle on Advanced Lipid Analysis 

The workshop kicked off with a deep dive into the theoretical underpinnings of lipid research. Our students learned about the intricate structure of lipids, delving into the variety of lipid molecules that can be observed and identified. They gained a comprehensive understanding of lipid and fatty acid diversity and metabolism, as well as the complex functions and species of lipids. This solid theoretical foundation set the stage for the practical skills they would later acquire.

Data analysis was another crucial component of the workshop. Our students learned to navigate and utilize advanced software and online platforms like Mass Hunter, LIMSA, and MetaboAnalyst for mass spectrometry data analysis. These practical sessions were invaluable, allowing them to apply their theoretical knowledge and enhance their technical skills.

The workshop was not just about learning new techniques; it was also about experiencing the collaborative and meticulous nature of scientific research. It was a journey that underscored the importance of both individual dedication and teamwork.
