Francesc Labad Roig, a Graduate student at the Universitat de Barcelona, from Barcelona, Spain joins the group! He comes from the Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (CSIC) under the supervision of Dra. Sandra Pérez and Dr. Enric Vázquez. He will be here for almost six months (July-December) in order to use ion mobility instrumentation to separate and analyze very persistent and very mobile (vPvM) substances such as melamine or PFAs from urban waters (mainly groundwater) from Atlanta. The main instrumentation used will be the Synapt G2S coupled to a Q-ToF. This work is in the frame of the UPWATER project. Francesc is enjoying an FPI 2019 grant from the Spanish ministry.
Titled “Development of a Machine Learning Strategy for Quantitative Non-targeted Lipidomics” Alex gave a talk at the 2023 Metabolomics Society Meeting in Niagara Falls, Canada
This work lead by Alex Van Grouw entitled “Development of a Robust Consensus Modeling Approach for Identifying Cellular and Media Metabolites Predictive of Mesenchymal Stromal Cell Potency” published in Stem Cells establishes a generalizable framework for identifying consensus predictive metabolites that predict MSC function, as well as guiding future MSC manufacturing efforts through identification of high-potency MSC lines and metabolic engineering.
This work lead by Daniel Vallejo entitled “Native triboelectric nanogenerator ion mobility-mass spectrometry of egg proteins relevant to objects of cultural heritage at picoliter and nanomolar quantities” published in Analytica Chemica Acta demonstrates that triboelectric nanogenerators (TENG) can generate protein ions suitable for native mass spectrometry at nanomolar and picoliter quantities, and its potential applications towards cultural heritage research.
