(First Announcement)

　　Lipid is one of the three major nutrients of human beings and plays an important role in human nutrition and health. The structure and composition of lipids are closely related to their biological functions and nutritional quality. Lipid has been becoming a hotspot for health and nutrition research all over the world. The International Symposium on Lipid Science and Health (ISLSH), which was organized annually by Oil Crops Research Institute of Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences (OCRI-CAAS) since 2016, has gained a strong reputation and attracted hundreds of delegates from around the world for discussion of lipid research trends and advances every year. In order to further promote the rapid development of lipid science and health research and enhance academic communications, The 4th International Symposium on Lipid Science and Health (4th ISLSH) will be held. The organizing committee will invite well-known experts specialized in lipid science all over the world to share the up-to-date achievements and prospects that cover the topics regarding lipid profiling methods, lipid preparation and modification, lipid improvement and regulation and lipid metabolism and health.
