The Metabolomics Association of North America
Who We Are
The Metabolomics Association of North America (MANA) is a non-profit organization that brings together a community of dedicated scientists and professionals in the field of metabolomics. With members from Canada, Mexico, and the USA, MANA is committed to fostering cooperation, coordination, and the advancement of metabolomics research in North America. In May 2018, MANA became an International Affiliate of the Metabolomics Society, further strengthening its commitment to aligning with shared goals and missions in advancing metabolomics. While both organizations have their own membership, organizational structures, budgets, and event schedules, they work closely together to promote the growth and development of metabolomics research, and to support the metabolomics community worldwide.
Our Mission
The mission of MANA is to promote the growth and development of the field of metabolomics (broadly defined as the systems-scale study of biochemical intermediates in biological systems), particularly on the continent of North America; to provide the opportunity for association among North American researchers in metabolomics sciences and in related fields, including connections between academia and industry; to provide opportunities for presentation of research achievements and for workshops; to promote the publication of meritorious research in the field; and to carry on any other activity to benefit the better understanding of metabolism in microbes, plants, animals and humans.
