Venue and dates :
The third Lipidomics meeting of the GERLI (Lipid bioscience section of the French Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology) will be held at Marseille, France, from May 10 to 12, 2006. The conferences will take place at the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique campus (31 chemin Joseph Aiguier) in the southern  area of a city where the Mediterranean sea and the biochemistry of lipids and lipolytic enzymes have met more than fifty years ago.

Access to the meeting place


This GERLI conference is organised with the support of the European Federation for the Science and Technology of Lipids (Euro Fed Lipid).
