This document summarizes a study that investigated how the antioxidant compound curcumin interacts with lipid membranes at a molecular level using solid-state NMR spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry. The study found that curcumin inserts deep into membranes in a transbilayer orientation, anchored by hydrogen bonding to lipid phosphate groups similarly to cholesterol. Curcumin induces segmental ordering in membranes and forms higher-order oligomeric structures that span and thin bilayers. It a
