Mass Spectrometry, MS imaging, LC methods, sample preparation, method development and research
I can help your research development with advise about several sample preparation techniques, such as MS, MS imaging, LC methods, sample preparation and method development, as well as the adequate instrumentation to achieve specific goals.
The development of new research paths is by no means trivial. We constantly need do think "out of the box" in order to come up with new research ideas, that can be both exciting and useful. In order to do it we also need funding. Together, we can write and develop strong research plans and grant proposals.

A strong driver for me are the challenges and promises of applying mass spectrometry and other analytical techniques to unlock new insights into the role of different substances, from single elements to macromolecules. I have a broad experience in analytical chemistry, in particular in mass spectrometry (MS), MS imaging, proteomics, several LC methods and Surface Plasmon Resonance(SPR). I have also worked with targeted analysis, label-free methods, several ionization methods (e.g. ESI, MALDI, LDI) as well as compounds synthesis, purification, qualitative and quantitative analysis. My research have always been driven by improvement in life quality, since my time as bachelor student, and has included research on Alzheimer disease, breast cancer and drug detection, to cite a few.
Being able to perform sensitive and quantitative analysis of molecules, and thus help unravel disease pathways and improve treatment options is something that speaks directly to my heart. Additionally, the application of knowledge to solve problems and create new research in different fields is always a welcome challenge and as proved to be very fruitful in several cases.
