Inhalt
This module addresses doctoral candidates, who wish to work or conduct parts of their research at the Kiel Metabolomics Platform. The training is offered "on-site" of the required analytical systems.
The aim of this module is to provide extensive knowledge and pratical skills in the field of instrumental analysis using different mass spectrometers. The systems provided by the Metabolomics Platform include a triple quad-, a time-of-flight- and a FT-ICR-mass spectrometer. The favourable measuring methods will be adapted to the respective research questions and samples (as advised by the lecturer).
In addition to the analytical work, knowledge in the evaluation is conveyed with device-specific software packages. The focus here lies on a "semi-targeted" approach (comparing results with a database of expected or known substances) on the one hand. Data sets will be evaluated primarily by means of the principal component analysis (PCA), other methods, e.g. PLS may be applied.
Data analysis will be supervised by a staff member but primarily be conducted by the doctoral candidates themselves. The module is offered on demand to ensure optimal utilization of the equipment and the teaching language is either English or German. If required, the doctoral candidates are entitled to bring associated Bachelor's and Master's students with them.
