Invitation
Metabolomics is an
emerging research field concerned with the comprehensive
characterization of the small molecule metabolites in biological
systems. It is intended to provide an overview of the metabolic status
and biochemical events associated with a cellular or biological
system, the Metabolome. Closely associated to Metabolomics is the
concept of Systems Biology having the aim to integrate
transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics data. The symposium uses
a wide definition of metabolomics as it will also include Metabonomics
as for example drug metabolism. Metabolomics can be studied by several
techniques, but the major technique used is again mass spectrometry.
The Swedish Society for Mass Spectrometry will now devote its Annual
Symposium at the Nobel Forum at The Karolinska Institutet to the use
of Mass Spectrometry in Metabolomics. This Symposia will gather
international and national leading scientist together with
presentation of vendors in an informal format.
