The Lipids Group of the SCI will host the 2018 Euro Fed Lipid Congress and Expo in Belfast, Northern Ireland. The SCI Lipids Group was formed in 1951 as the Oils & Fats Group, is a founding member of Euro Fed Lipid and previously hosted an EFL Congress in 2004 in Edinburgh, Scotland, which was very successful.

The theme of the meeting in Belfast will be the application of science, technology and nutrition to address the issues arising in our constantly changing world. As well as the usual Euro Fed Lipid Division streams, we will include a stream focussed on dairy fats, since this represents a large industry in Ireland.
