I had a fun interview with The Analytical Scientist and my friends and colleagues Coral Barbas and Georgios Theodoridis about the importance of good analytical chemistry. Please have a read of why we think that analytical chemistry needs to step into the light. 👇

Double feature in Springer Nature Metabolomics for me, two accepted articles published on the same day:
First, Pauline Couacault's article on our BµS sampling workflow!

Second, a review together with good friends and colleagues.

Announcement📢- We are delighted to announce that this month's #webinar will be presented by @metabomichael.bsky.social titled: 'The Caenorhabditis elegans lipidome – What we know and don’t so far… ’ sponsored by #AvantiResearch on Tuesday the 24th of February 🥳

Metabolites are not genes — avoiding the misuse of pathway analysis in metabolomics - Nature Metabolism Pathway analysis, originally developed for gene expression data, has been adapted for metabolomics. However, owing to the unique characteristics and constraints of metabolites compared with genes, pathway analysis in metabolomics often yields misleading or nonsensical results.

Now I'm jealous! Enjoy! Both Kyoto and the gin!

The Analytical Scientist’s 2025 Power List dropped a few weeks ago and we’re ecstatic that ❗three ❗ of our HUMAN PIs got into the Top Ten for the topic: "What should be done to help analytical science rise to prominence as the keystone of all good science?"

1/3

I’m newly in charge of a course and want to shake up things for the Master’s students a bit.

Hi 👋 PhD students, tell me what would you have liked to learn earlier?

🚨 Scientific writing?
🚨 Presentation skills?
🚨 Mental health awareness?

Together with Aiko Barsch, Matthew R. Lewis, Lisa Abel, and my PhD student from the @human-dn.bsky.social project, @klairvoyager.bsky.social , we'll be building and optimizing methods for small molecule analysis on this new MS and exploring new avenues in 4D #metabolomics and #lipidomics.

Let there be METABOlites...in Munich!

We are happy that, in collaboration with Bruker Daltonics, our lab at @www.helmholtz-munich.de welcomed the first ever installation of a timsMetabo outside of Bruker HQ!

I'm very happy that I have been selected for The Analytical Scientist Power List 2025: theanalyticalscientist.com/power-list/2...! #analyticalchemistry #metabolomics #lipidomics

Before leaving for the summer break, why not register for this years Munich Metabolomics Meeting? We will have great workshop on QA and QC aspects of targeted and non-targeted metabolomics. We are currently filling our programme. Here is a first glimpse: www.munichmetabolomics.com/programme

I'm happy to share my latest article on lipid identification. This was a very nice collaboration with Sara Martínz from Coral Barbas laboratory at the CEMBIO. After the preprint now the final article:

Today @ansgarkorf.bsky.social is presenting a brand new compatibility, matching the best in class #mzmine software with the brand new #timsMetabo platform.

Come and speak to him at poster 464 for find out how you can discover MoRE! #ASMS2025

At #ASMS2025, we presented a next-gen workflow pairing the #timsMetabo MoRE (Mobility Range Enhancement) with #mzmine and #DreaMS

Compared to conventional LC-MS2, the data delivered:

- 84% more detected features
- 5.7× more MS² spectra
- 3× more spectral matches

Read the full poster to learn MoRE
