The Arqus Climate Change and Sustainable Development (CChSD) cluster invites researchers and students to participate in the webinar “Field-based metabolomics tools to investigate plant responses under challenging environments”, which will take place on Thursday, 18th April 2024, at 15:00 CEST.
Metabolomics is a powerful approach because its metabolites and their concentrations directly reflect the underlying biochemical activity and state of cells/tissues. Thus, metabolomics best represents the molecular phenotype of crop plants under changing environments. This course is an introduction to setting up a field metabolomics study based on Liquid Chromatography coupled to Mass Spectrometry, from experimental design to data processing.
The session, led by Prof. Arnaud Lanoue from the University of Tours, is part of the Blended Intensive Programme on “Plant adaptations to climate changes” that is being organised by the Universities of Granada, Minho, Wroclaw and the Université Catholique de Louvain.
