About the Lipidomics Gateway
Welcome to the Lipidomics Gateway: a free, comprehensive website for researchers interested in lipid biology. Formed collaboratively between Nature Publishing Group and the LIPID MAPS consortium, this site provides a rich collection of information and resources to help you stay abreast of the latest developments in this rapidly expanding field. Each month the site is updated with specially written content from Nature Publishing Group editors, including research highlights, news, events and a growing research library. The Gateway also provides access to the extensive information collections, research data and tools from the LIPID MAPS consortium.
About LIPID MAPS
The LIPID MAPS (Lipid Metabolites and Pathways Strategy) consortium is a multi-institutional effort to further our understanding of lipid metabolism and the role lipids play in diseases such as diabetes, stroke, and cancer. The consortium takes a systems biology approach using the mouse macrophage as a model system, and provides tools and resources for the wider community. See About the consortium for more information.
