Development of Streamlined Data Processing Pipeline for Untargeted Metabolomics

Metabolomics is the study of the complete set of small molecules in human body. It is a cutting-edge technology that empowers precision health and drug discovery. Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) system is the most sensitive analytical platform for metabolomics. However, computer programs are urgently needed to automatically process metabolomics data. This project will incorporate state-of-the-art signal extraction algorithms to develop an automated pipeline of data processing. The developed program will accelerate metabolomics-guided precision health research and business development in BioTwin.
