Hosted by: UC Davis West Coast Metabolomics Center (Davis, CA)

Location: Online

Tuition: $175

Instructor: Dr. Jake Folz, ETH Zurich

• Required Software: MS-DIAL for Windows. Versions of the tool to be used will be announced closer to the course date.

• Participant prerequisites: Basic understanding of LC-MS and understanding of how MS/MS spectra are used in metabolite identification.

• Level: Intermediate

• Decription: Metabolomics demands meticulous data processing, especially with large complex datasets (i.e., 1000s of samples, different shipping batches, longitudinal studies). Using hands-on examples, we will provide best practices on how to perform fine-tuned curation of LC-MS/MS data generated through MS-DIAL a freely-available data processing tool for untargeted metabolomics data and other tips for quality assessment and reducing unknown features to ensure accuracy.
