ASMS Wednesday Morning Tutorial Workshops
From 10:00 to 11:30 am CDT today, six workshops are being held.
From 10:00 to 11:30 am CDT today, six workshops are being held and are as follows:
- Wed-01 Compound Identification by Mass Spectral Library Searching, Presided by Xiaoyu Yang and Stephen Stein. The objective of this workshop is to provide a forum for participants to learn what a mass spectral library is, what libraries are available, how to use them, how to build their own, and problems and solutions arising when searching libraries.
- Wed-02 Multi-omics Research using Mass Spectrometry, Presiders are Pratik Jagtap, Susan Weintraub, and Timothy Griffin. Workshop topics will include experiences with integrating advanced mass spectrometry technology methods and meta-omics analysis for characterizing complex microbiome. Proteogenomics talk will cover integrating diverse data types and developing statistical methods to analyze large comprehensive proteogenomics datasets. Analytical methods in genomics, epigenomics, and metabolomics to characterize disease biomarkers and therapeutic targets will also be covered.
- Wed-03 Networking for Scientists: Celebrating Women Mass Spectrometrists Year 3, Presided by Anumita Saha, Erin Baker, and Komal Kedia. The third year of this workshop will focus on creating more opportunity for more one-on-one interaction with panelists. Throughout the workshop, participants will be prompted to rotate to a new panelist enabling ample opportunity for networking.
- Wed-04 Machine Learning: How Is It Enhancing Mass Spectrometry? The Presiders are Gaurav Chopra, Graham Cooks, and Hilkka KenttaÌmaa. This workshop will address revolutionary changes in data science and artificial intelligence that may result in new opportunities at the interface between data and MS based measurement science.
- Wed-05 Art,Archaeology, and Paleontology, Presider will be Enrico Cappellini. This workshop aims at sharing experience on innovative and advanced methods for sample preparation, mass spectrometry measurement and automated data analysis, focusing in particular on the challenging specificities of cultural heritage materials.
- Wed-06 MassIVE.Quant: Enabling Community Access to Quantitative Mass Spectrometry Data Presider is Olga Vitek. After briefly illustrating the goals of the MassIVE.quant platform with common use cases, this workshop will focus on the open discussion of features, data and accessibility standards that would best meet the research needs of mass spectrometry research labs attempting to share or reuse quantitative MS data in the public domain.
Best of the Week: Food Analysis, Chemical Migration in Plastic Bottles, STEM Researcher of the Year
December 20th 2024Top articles published this week include the launch of our “From Lab to Table” content series, a Q&A interview about using liquid chromatography–high-resolution mass spectrometry (LC–HRMS) to assess chemical hazards in plastic bottles, and a piece recognizing Brett Paull for being named Tasmanian STEM Researcher of the Year.
Using LC-MS/MS to Measure Testosterone in Dried Blood Spots
December 19th 2024Testosterone measurements are typically performed using serum or plasma, but this presents several logistical challenges, especially for sample collection, storage, and transport. In a recently published article, Yehudah Gruenstein of the University of Miami explored key insights gained from dried blood spot assay validation for testosterone measurement.
Determination of Pharmaceuticals by Capillary HPLC-MS/MS (Dec 2024)
December 19th 2024This application note demonstrates the use of a compact portable capillary liquid chromatograph, the Axcend Focus LC, coupled to an Agilent Ultivo triple quadrupole mass spectrometer for quantitative analysis of pharmaceutical drugs in model aqueous samples.
