The Sphingolipid Club has sponsorized two travel grants for young participants to the 2023 FASEB SRC Lysophospholipid and Related Mediators Conference, held at Melbourne, FL,  USA, on July 9-13, 2023.

The SLC Scientific Board has been updated with the entry of a new top-rated scientists, from European and overseas countries. Their contribution will be highly appreciated.

The SLC governance has been enriched with the constitution of a Board of National Delegates, aimed to extend the platea of our members, to organize National sphingolipid days or small conferences, and to coordinate grant applications, where the official presence of different countries is required.

Travel awards in memory of Antonio Delgado and Mark Kester have been honoured to Lorry Carrié, Essa M. Saied and Hui-Min Ling.

A successfull and higly participated Meeting was held on last September 2022 at Pozzilli (Italy), with the generous support of Neuromed.

The Sphingolipid Club and Neuromed are offering two awards for young researchers (PhD and postdocs) presenting their work as poster or oral communication focused on “Sphingolipid signaling in Cancer”, at the next XIV Sphingolipid Club Meeting, held on Sept 7-11, 2022 in Pozzilli.

One of these Awards is possible thanks to the generous contribution of Prof. Myles Cabot, a close friend of Prof. Kester.

The Sphingolipid Club is offering an award for young researchers (PhD and postdocs) presenting their work as poster or oral communication focused on “Chemistry in Sphingolipid Research”, at the next XIV Sphingolipid Club Meeting, held on Sept 7-11, 2022 in Pozzilli

On last March 29-30, 2022 the Italian Section of the Sphingolipid Club has held in-presence its second Symposium, at the Etruscan Chochohotel, Perugia, with the title “New frontiers of the Sphingolipids“.

We had 37 active participants, including senior and young researchers, coming from the Universities of Perugia, Milan, Bologna, Brescia, Pisa, Florence, Turin, Salerno, Naples, and from some prestigious research institutions, the Fondazione IRCCS Istituto Neurologico Besta, Milano and Neuromed, Pozzilli. The level of the presentation, in oral form, was extraordinary high and and the discussion was greatly participated.

The Sphingolipid Club wishes that other national Sphingolipid Club sections could be interested in organizing such kind of Symposia and is pleased to give all the organizative support.
