DESCRIPTION
The course provides an introduction to metabolomics and will discuss and use the tools and techniques (practical) needed to conduct a metabolomics study. Various applications of metabolomics in biology, medical and toxicological fields will be discussed. A focus point in the course is the performance of a metabolomics experiment in which you will work with eggs of zebrafish. You follow the development from egg to embryo, determine lipids and neurotransmitters in the embryos, and process and analyse the large amount of data.
