03.04.2023 | New visiting students starting

Today, 3 visiting students are starting their projects with us! Nandini Sagar (Biochemistry) will stay with us for 4 weeks to work with Mihyun on staining procedures for our novel mass tags, and Barabara Matic (Chemistry) and Huda Abdel Karim (Chemical Engineering) are starting their BSc thesis projects on spatial metabolomics and drug visualisation under the supervision of Dr. Lieby Zborovsky. Wellcome everyone :) 

03.04.2023 | New PhD student starting

Today was the first day of our newest PhD student Wei Chen. Wellcome! Chen studied chemsitry at TUM and did her MSc thesis with Prof. Elsner and Dr. Bakkhour at the Chair of Analytical Chemistry and Waterchemistry. Chen will work on multimodal imaging strategies to study host-microbe interactions! We are glad to have you!

14.-17.03.2023 | EMIM conference, Salzburg

Mihyun Park, Dr. Lieby Zborovsky and Prof. Strittmatter went to attend the 18th European Molecular Imaging Meeting in beautiful Salzburg, Austria. Congrats to Lieby and Mihyun for their great poster presentations! We would like to thank everyone who attended and presented in the MSI study group session and co-chairs Dr. Tina Angerer (Uppsala University) and Dr. Alan Race (AstraZeneca). We also want to highlight our collaborators Dr. Irina Heid (TUM), who presented some exciting MSI results that Mihyun recorded on her murine PDAC specimen and Martin Grashei (AG Schilling, TUM) who presented some of our MSI data on visualisation of their novel MRS pH sensor Z-OMPD!
