Lipidomics: A Promising area in “OMICS” Research

Lipidomics is defined as the analysis of lipids on the systems-level scale together with their interacting factors. In this review, we will discuss the technical developments in the field of lipidomics and overview the current state of the lipid bioinformatics field as well as suggest few potential new areas of research. The role of bioinformatics in the development of lipidomics will also be discussed.
