The Precision Medicine Task Group of the Metabolomics Society in partnership with other organizations and interest groups is organizing a virtual workshop on Single Cell Metabolomics, to be held on Friday February 26, 2021 10 AM – 13.00 pm EST (4 pm – 7 pm Vienna).

Omics at single cell resolution has expanded very rapidly, most obviously in genomics/transcriptomics. However, this approach lacks direct analysis of function, such as cellular metabolism. Most tissues are fundamentally heterogeneous at the cellular level, and heterogeneity is a hallmark of several pathologies including cancer. The Workshop will comprise invited talks and a general open discussion forum.

AREAS OF INTEREST INCLUDE:

  • Coverage
  • Imaging based methods (MS, microdissection, optical, other)
  • Prospects for stable isotope tracing at single cell resolution
  • Emerging approaches and applications

SPEAKERS:

  • Thomas Hankemeier & Ahmed Ali, University of Leiden
  • Jonathan Sweedler, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign
  • Nimmi Ramanujam, Duke University
  • Ian Gilmore, National Physical Laboratory, London
  • Shawn Davidson, Princeton University

Organized by:

  • Andrew N. Lane, University of Kentucky
  • Mioara Larion, National Institutes of Health
  • Jennifer Kirwan, Berlin Institute of Health
  • Rima F Kaddurah-Daouk, Duke University School of Medicine

All participants are welcome to register for free. To register please send a mail to lisa.howerton@duke.edu.
