HAPPENING NOW:

🌊First Glimpse into the Pacific’s Silent Pollutants Did you know that chemicals like PFAS—dubbed "forever chemicals"—are impacting even the tiniest lives in the most remote corners of the world? 🌍💔 Curious? 🔗 #WeekendRead #PFAS #teammassspec

See you all tomorrow!😉

We are HUMAN and we have a thirst for blood… and data! 😉 At HUMAN, blood microsamples = less pain, more data. Do you want to know more? Get to know us and our labs (+shenanigans) by following us on LinkedIn, X (or Twitter), and Instagram! #metabolomics #healthresearch

HUMAN reached a New Milestone!✨🤩 Several labs with the HUMAN network participated in a pilot study to test different blood microsampling devices. Our fellow HUMANs at AUTh shares their findings in this #milestone post!

It's this Friday!📢 Grab your coffee and your labmates and join us!

🧬 What if the noise in your data isn’t biology but preanalytical bias? 🔬 Researchers show the crucial role of standardization. Pre-analytical factors may well be the invisible hand that shapes your metabolomics results! Curious? 🔗 #metabolomics #DBS

Fats with a purpose?🧠✨ This #Weekend read dives into the world of lipids and their role in diagnosing and tracking Parkinson’s disease! Could their proposed lipid panel change the game for neurodegenerative diseases?🧪✨ Curious? 🔗 #lipidomics

🌟 Join us for the first 2025 HUMAN Webinar! 🌟 🗓 7 Feb 2025 | 13:00 CET 🎤 Speaker: Dr. Purva Kulkarni, Head of Translational Metabolomics, Radboud UMC 📚 Topic: Mass Spectrometry-Based Omics for Diagnosing Rare Metabolic Diseases 🔗Zoom Link: #webinars

Heads up! We're also on #BlueskySocial!

🔬✨Metabolic mayhem anyone? This #Weekend Read reveals how natural phenolic acids like trans-cinnamic acid and its derivatives disrupt E. coli metabolism, shedding light on their potential as next-gen antimicrobials. 🌿🦠 Curious? 🔗

We believe in gender balance and equality. We are funded through the Marie Curie Actions, and like like the program's namesake, we value the role and contributions of women and other genders in science. Fun fact, our network is a female majority — 9 out of 12 DCs are women!

We are HUMAN and we are diverse, multicultural, and multilingual. We’re made of data scientists, pharmacists, chemists, and even medical and sports scientists. And to top that off, our DCs came from all over the world! #teammassspec #metabolomics #healthresearch

We all know about microplastics and their prevalence in our waters. How about nanoplastics and their presence in the air we breathe?🌍☠️ In this #Weekend Read, we're featuring research on airborne nanoplastic detecion using MS! #Nanoplastics #AirQuality #EnvironmentalResearch

What can MS tell us about beauty? 🤔💇🏻💄 This #Weekend Read reveals the hidden dangers of certain colorants found in #cosmetics, some of which have been banned for their carcinogenic and mutagenic risks, especially around sensitive areas like the eyes and lips. 🛑 #teammassspec

How much information can the human heart hold?🫀🩺 Our latest #Weekend Read dives deep into human heart metabolites, using advanced mass spectrometry and innovative extraction techniques.🔬✨ #Metabolomics #MassSpectrometry #Health #teammassspec

Today's the day! See you! 🙌

📢See you all on Friday, the 15th! Two more days to go!
