Overview

Lipid biology is the study of fats and other lipids in the body. Lipids play an essential role in maintaining health, as they are used to store energy, form cell membranes, and transport vitamins and hormones. The composition of lipids in the body affects metabolic processes, inflammation, and heart health. Understanding lipid biology is important for treating metabolic disorders and developing treatments for diseases such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and obesity. Additionally, lipid biology can inform strategies for diet and lifestyle changes to reduce risk of disease.
