During the 34th International Symposium on Chromatography, which takes place from October 6–10, 2024 in Liverpool, UK, various scientists presented research about different aspects of analytical chemistry. One such presentation was created by Anneli Kruve of Stockholm University, whose work focused on prioritizing and elucidating the structure of toxic chemicals based on complementary empirical analytical information from LC/HRMS.
Anneli Kruve is an Associate Professor at Stockholm University. She graduated in 2011 from the University of Tartu and continued her studies as a post-doc in Techion, Israel. She was a Humboldt fellow at Freie Universität Berlin (2017–2018) and has supervised several doctoral students at the University of Tartu. In 2019, she joined Stockholm University, where she is in charge of the mass spectrometry laboratory. Her studies focus on the fundamentals and applications of mass spectrometry. Specifically, on establishing (semi-)quantitative non-targeted analysis and applying ion mobility separation for complex structural characterization (2).
As part of our conference coverage, we sat down with Kruve to learn more about her background and what drives her interest in analytical chemistry.
In this interview, we asked the following questions:
