The inaugural Big Ten Academic Alliance Lipids Symposium was
hosted by the Rutgers Center for Lipid Research in 2016. The symposium brought together a group of renowned speakers from Big Ten schools who shared their knowledge,
results, and insights into how lipids relate to metabolic diseases.
The theme of sharing research was further exemplified through a poster session and informal discussions. Collaborations, and most
importantly, friendships resulted from the inaugural symposium with plans for future meetings. Subsequent symposia were held at
Purdue University (2018), University of Minnesota (2019), University of
Illinois (2022), and University of Iowa (2023). The next one is scheduled to be held at Ohio State University (2024).
