How to map disease-specific changes using innovative LC-MS/MS-based omics approaches
June 26, 2025 – 16:00 BST / 17:00 CEST / 11:00 EDT / 08:00 PDT
Mass spectrometry coupled with liquid chromatography (LC-MS/MS) has become a cornerstone of clinical research for the analysis of biomarkers indicative of disease. The integration of this technology across omics applications provides significant advantages in terms of assay sensitivity, specificity, robustness, and multiplexing. These benefits are enabling researchers to gain new insights into disease etiology and pathogenesis through the identification and quantitation of disease-specific biomarkers.
In this webinar, Professor Martin Giera, Leiden University Medical Center and Professor Antonin Lamazière, Sorbonne University and Saint Antoine’s Hospital, will demonstrate how the latest advancements in mass spectrometry-based omics are providing a comprehensive assessment of disease mechanisms and patient-specific treatment responses.
The presentations will showcase several examples of how the integration of LC-MS/MS technology across various omics applications provides disease state evaluation and monitoring, ultimately resulting in more personalized and effective patient care.

Speakers
Martin Giera is a professor for translational metabolomics and lipidomics at the Leiden University Medical Center in the Netherlands. His research interests are focused on the role of metabolites and lipids in health and disease, including inflammatory diseases, cancer, and neurological disorders. The goal of his research is to identify specific metabolites and lipids associated with certain diseases that can be used to develop more accurate diagnoses and more effective treatment options for various disease states.
Antonin Lamazière is a professor and hospital practitioner at Sorbonne University's Faculty of Medicine. He heads the hospital department of Clinical Metabolomics at Hôpital Saint Antoine (AP-HP.Sorbonne Université). His research interests lie at the interface between metabolism, nutrition, and endocrine and metabolic pathologies. The goal of his research is to develop translational approaches based on more fundamental pathophysiological issues, leading to the development of new diagnostic tools for use in healthcare.
