Topic: Bioinformatics for Lipidomics, with a focus on mass spectrometry data analysis and workflows

Contents: The de.NBI Spring School 2025 will provide in-depth knowledge and practical experience in lipidomics bioinformatics. Participants will explore state-of-the-art bioinformatics tools essential for lipidomics research, comprehensive lipidomics workflows, and the challenges and limitations of lipidomics from multiple perspectives.

Prerequisites:
Basic knowledge of lipidomics, analytical workflows in lipidomics, and basic familiarity with web-based and desktop applications. Please note that you may need to install software on your computer to fully participate in all exercises requiring proper rights. The workshop will be a mix of small lecture segments and hands-on exercises. The trainers will be available for questions and assistance during the workshops.
