Welcome Message
Dear Korean and Japanese lipid researchers,
The first Korea-Japan Joint Symposium on Bioactive Lipids was held in Jeju Island,South Korea in 2016. The 2nd Korea-Japan Geology Joint Symposium was held at
Hokkaido University in 2018. However, the symposium was suspended for a while
due to COVID-19. We are pleased to announce that the 3rd Korea-Japan Lipid
Symposium will be held in Busan, Korea from May 21 to 23, 2024.

This symposium will feature full lectures, oral presentations, poster presentations,and discussions on the latest trends in the field of lipid biology.

We believe that this symposium will promote research cooperation between Korea
and Japan and strengthen scientific relationships and friendship betweenresearchers.

Busan, Korea is a great place for tourism and food, and we look forward to seeing
you there.

We welcome the Korean and Japanese lipid researchers who are meeting again
after 6 years and hope that they will have a great time sharing lipid research in Busan.
With best wishes,Tae-Sik Park, PhD., Gachon University
