Mass Spectrometry Imaging Course

A compact, hands-on introduction to modern mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) with applications in spatial metabolomics and spatial proteomics.

Who Should Join

This module is intended for Master students in chemistry, biochemistry, and related disciplines.

A basic understanding of mass spectrometry is helpful, but the main requirement is an interest in:

• Modern analytical chemistry
• Biomedical research applications
• Spatial omics technologies

Why Take This Course

Mass spectrometry imaging is a rapidly developing field with increasing relevance in biology and medicine.

This course offers:

• A compact but in-depth introduction
• Direct practical experience
• Exposure to real biomedical applications
• Intensive training in a focused format

When?

Second half of September 2026

The teaching component is completed within 8 days during the lecture-free period.
