Lipidomics Advances and Females in Mass Spec: An Analytica Interview with Anne Bendt
Bendt, of SLING, or Singapore Lipidomics Incubator, spoke with LCGC at Analytica 2024 about her research in the field of lipidomics, and about her work laying the ground for the Females in Mass Spectrometry group.
Anne Bendt is the Deputy Director and Principal Investigator of the Singapore Lipidomics Incubator (SLING), Life Sciences Institute. Her expertise in lipidomics extends to researching and developing biomarkers and diagnostics, translation and commercialization, and how this course of study relates to infectious diseases.
SLING, according to Bendt's bio online, is a "worldwide leading program for mass spectrometry (MS)-based analysis" of lipids. Bendt hopes to continue her research into clinical applications of MS for small molecules.

- Any future goals for your work that you'd like to share with us? (3:39)
- Tell us about your work with Females in Mass Spectrometry. (4:55)
- How can anyone who is interested get involved with Females in Mass Spectrometry? (7:26)
- What was the most exciting thing you did at Analytica this year? (8:38)
New Method Explored for the Detection of CECs in Crops Irrigated with Contaminated Water
April 30th 2025This new study presents a validated QuEChERS–LC-MS/MS method for detecting eight persistent, mobile, and toxic substances in escarole, tomatoes, and tomato leaves irrigated with contaminated water.
