The 2026 #NLASessions is officially underway, and we couldn’t have asked for a better start to our time in Chicago!
We kicked off the day by wrapping up our three pre-conference courses before diving into a full agenda of learning and connection. The day continued with two Expert Theaters and the Opening Session before ending at the Welcome Reception, where our incredible lipid community got to reconnect.
Tomorrow’s schedule is just as exciting, with @VindicoMedEd’s breakfast symposium, gene editing, Late Breakers, the NLA/EAS Joint Session, and much more on deck.
Rest up and get ready for another action-packed day at #NLASessions!
And so it begins. First session of NLA Sci Sessions 2026 and what an important message to start with!!
