Tasks and aims of the research group

Today, mass spectrometry is a key technology for metabolomics research. Due to immense technological
advances in mass spectrometry over the last years, the amount and complexity of the
data produced has been growing rapidly. We are developing algorithms, databases and tools required for the analysis of metabolomics experiments:

• Algorithms and tools to handle and process large scale mass spectrometry data

• Statistical approaches to interpret metabolite profiling data

• Tools and databases for computer aided metabolite structure elucidation

• Analysis of metabolite profiling data in the context of dynamic metabolite pathways
