Laboratory
Summary

The Lipid Cell Biology Laboratory, led by Prof. Giovanni D'Angelo, focuses on understanding the role of membrane lipids in cell identity and development. By combining advanced lipidomics and imaging techniques, the lab investigates the compositional variability of cell membranes and its impact on cell function. Research projects include in-situ single cell lipidomics, regulation of sphingolipid metabolism in neurogenesis, and the dynamic role of lipid processing in membrane assembly. Recent findings from the lab have contributed to understanding lipid modifications in virus structures, such as SARS-CoV-2, and their implications for infection. The lab's work sheds light on the importance of lipid composition in cellular processes and disease states.
