The Lipidomics Laboratory of Mass Spectrometry of the University of Aveiro (CEM-UA) presented the activity “Discovering Lipids – Lipodrome in Action” at the Xperimenta 2024 event.

The board game Lipodrome, developed by researchers involved in COST Action EpiLipidNET allowing the students, from a variety of backgrounds, to investigate the connection between dietary decisions and overall health and to observe how different food choices can impact our health based on the lipids they contain.

This occasion made it possible for the Lipidomic Laboratory of CEM-UA and the COST Action EpiLipidNET to further contribute to public involvement and education in the complicated field of lipids. Additional initiatives are planned, in association with Fábrica Centro Ciência Viva de Aveiro.
