🍺🎉 Happy International Beer Day! 🎉🍺

Did you know that beer isn't just foam and fun — it's also packed with fascinating lipids that play a surprising role in flavour, and even your health? 🤯

👉 Read about one of these lipids in our Lipid of the Month - lipidmaps.org/updates/lipi...

August's #LipidoftheMonth is also #LipidoftheMoth. It's identification took a whole lot of work, and even more moths! lipidmaps.org/updates/lipi...

Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin, a pioneer of biomolecular structure determination, was born #OnThisDay in 1910. Her crystal structure of cholesterol iodide confirmed the structure of the sterol backbone. Dorothy Hodgkin was the first and only British woman to win a Nobel Prize in science. buff.ly/dKSnnsu

John Dalton - Wikipedia

John Dalton, known as the 'Father of Chemistry', died #OnThisDay in 1844. He was a chemist, physicist & meteorologist who introduced atomic theory to chemistry and conducted research into colour blindness. The atomic mass unit is named in his honour.

Did you know… 🤔 according to several sources, Sir Joseph John (JJ) Thompson is credited with the invention of mass spectrometry in the early 1900s with the development of his core principles and techniques, leading to the development of the mass spectrograph.

🌊🧬 World Drowning Prevention Day 🧬🌊

🔍 Lipid analysis is a powerful forensic tool, it's a compelling intersection of #lipidomics and drowning, but let's work toward a world where such tools are needed less—because we prevented drowning in the first place.

This day in 1934 marked the death of Marie Curie 🔬❤️

Marie Curie’s groundbreaking work with radioactive elements helped scientists develop advanced imaging techniques like radioactive tracers. These tracers are now crucial for studying how lipids move and behave inside our cells! 🧬💥

🔬 What do fats have to do with blood cancer? More than you think.

✨ Lipids - not just in your food, but in your blood. New research shows that lipid metabolism plays a surprising role in how blood cancers like leukemia and lymphoma grow and survive.
