CLINICAL MASS SPECTROMETRY GROUP


Clinical mass spectrometry, metabolomics and lipidomics for translational laboratory medicine

We develop and apply LC-MS/MS, metabolomics and lipidomics workflows to understand disease mechanisms, discover clinically relevant biomarkers and support the translation of omics technologies into laboratory medicine.

We bridge the gap between academia and day-to-day clinical practice.

WHAT WE DO

Mass spectrometry workflows for clinically meaningful omics research

We combine clinical laboratory expertise with targeted mass spectrometry, metabolomics and lipidomics to study disease mechanisms and develop clinically meaningful analytical workflows.

Clinical LC-MS/MS

Development and validation of targeted LC-MS/MS methods for laboratory medicine, including small molecules, steroids, organic acids and biomarkers of inherited metabolic disorders.

Metabolomics

Targeted metabolomic workflows for the investigation of human disease, biochemical phenotyping and translational biomarker discovery.

Lipidomics

Quantitative lipidomics focused on inflammation, infection, cardiovascular risk and disease-associated remodeling of lipid pathways.

Multi-omics & data analysis

Integration of metabolomics, lipidomics, proteomics and clinical data using robust statistics, visualization and biomarker modelling.

CLINICAL QUESTIONS

Where mass spectrometry meets clinical questions

We apply mass spectrometry-based omics to clinically relevant questions where lipid and metabolite profiles may improve disease understanding, patient stratification or laboratory diagnostics.

Inflammation and infection

Distinguishing infectious and sterile inflammation using lipid and metabolite signatures in clinically relevant matrices.


Inherited metabolic disorders

LC-MS/MS workflows for selective screening, diagnostics and biochemical characterization of inborn errors of metabolism.


Cardiovascular risk lipidomics

Lipid-based risk stratification with a focus on ceramides, phospholipids and disease-associated lipid remodeling.


Immune-mediated diseases

Multi-omics profiling of inflammatory bowel disease and immune-mediated conditions using metabolomics, lipidomics and proteomics.


Perioperative and stress metabolism

Metabolic and lipidomic changes associated with surgery, stress response and clinical recovery.
