We are super excited that our new paper on microfluidic-based LC-MS/MS fractionation in combination with bioluminescence bioreporters readouts, for compound-resolved bioactivity metabolomics, was just published: pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/...

New paper from the group. Together with Chambers Hughes, Giovanni Vitale and our amazing collaborators, we developed a multiplexed chemical metabolomics workflow to assign functional groups in non-targeted LC-MS/MS data:

We are super excited to start a new project with support from the Simons Foundation.
We will leverage our metabolomics tools and SynCom models to study how microbes shape the production, transformation, and fate of marine DOM.
Thanks so much @simonsfoundation.org‬ for making this possible!

We are pretty stoked that our paper on chemical shifts in kelp forests in the Gulf of Maine made it onto the front cover of ‪@science.org
Big congratulations to Shane Farrell and everybody involved! ✌️✌️✌️
Kelp forests on the coast of Maine are in decline owing to rapid ocean warming and are being replaced by turf algae, which alter the ecosystem’s chemistry, hindering the recovery of kelp forests.

Another success story of native MS. Pteridines, found also in #cyanobacteria, bind to cutA, possibly bridging copper homeostasis and cellular redox regulation.

New reprint from the team: Lead by @nike-wagner.bsky.social, we used our native metabolomics setup to shed new light onto the function of the CutA protein.

Good news: We will have another summer school on non-targeted metabolomics this year! Organized by Martin Hansen and Scott Jarmusch, this year's summer school will be hosted at DTU in Copenhagen from August 18-22, inc. a summer camp style accommodation option at DTU.

New preprint from our collaboration with @aliciaperezlorente.bsky.social from Diego Romero's group, who spend some time with us at @cmfi.bsky.social. It's great to see all the puzzle pieces coming together, providing a detailed snapshot of the molecular interplay between Bacillus and and Botrytis.

We are very proud that after a long repair/upgrade and moves across continents, our most critical piece of equipment is fully functional again. 💪💪💪
Big thanks to Jorge and Karo for fixing it and for generating the tutorial.
