The 105th Boehringer Ingelheim Fonds International Titisee Conference ‘Lipids as Organizers of Cell Membranes’ took place in March 2012, in Germany. Kai Simons and Gisou Van der Goot gathered cell biologists and biophysicists to discuss the interplay between lipids and proteins in biological membranes, with an emphasis on how technological advances could help fill the gap in our understanding of the lipid part of the membrane.
