Mayo Clinic to Host Metabolomics Workshop Sept. 8-10, 2014
Mayo Clinic is one of six federally funded Regional Comprehensive Metabolomics
Resource Cores (RCMRC) to support medical research using metabolomics - the
comprehensive and quantitative analysis of molecules (metabolites) that define the
metabolic signatures of living systems.
Mayo Clinic will host a Metabolomics Symposium from Sept. 8 through Sept. 10, 2014,
in Rochester, Minn. The event will feature presentations on the practice and theory of
metabolomics applications, latest research in metabolomics, tours and networking
opportunities, and a poster session (cash awards will be given for excellence). The
workshop will be open to beginner and established researchers, students, and postdoctoral
fellows.
Mayo Clinic presenters include K. Sreekumaran Nair, MD, PhD; Michael Jensen, MD;
Slobodan Macura, PhD; Adrian Vella, MD; Ian Lanza, PhD; Petras Dzeja, PhD; Surendra

Subramaniam, PhD (UCSD).
