Seminar - Analytical strategies to improve data quality in biomarker discovery
Seminar - Analytical strategies to improve data quality in biomarker discovery
17 April 2023

Tuesday 13 June 2023 at Imperial College London, UK
In this one-day seminar, you will:
- Hear from leaders in their field about how they use analytical techniques – such as thermal desorption and GC×GC – for biomarker discovery across diverse sample types, including breath, bacterial cultures, and urine.
- Network with experts in the field and discuss hot topics in biomarker discovery.
- See the instrumentation used for biomarker discovery during a lab tour.
Speakers include:
- Prof. George. Hanna (Imperial College London)
Developing breath testing for the clinical environment
- Dr Waqar Ahmed (University of Manchester)
Characterisation of pathogen-specific biomarkers in bacterial pneumonia using high-capacity sorptive extraction (HiSorb™) and automated chemometrics
- Dr Antonis Myridakis (Imperial College London)
Global Urinary Volatolomics with (GC×)GC–TOF MS
