The mass spectrometer is a research instrument that ranks among the world’s greatest inventions. Mass spectrometry that helps weigh an individual molecule’s weight has become a fixture in doping research, medicine, ecology, and even museums.

Nowadays, mass spectrometry helps obtain images of tissues and identify the types and locations of various molecules in the human body. What changes occur in tumor tissue in terms of molecular composition? How to delineate the tumor boundaries? How do drugs and their metabolites move around the body? Find out the answers to these questions from Professor Nikolaev’s lecture.

Speaker: Skoltech Professor Evgeny Nikolaev, Doctor of Science, Corresponding Member of RAS, and Head of the Mass Spectrometry Laboratory at the Skoltech Center for Computational and Data-Intensive Science and Engineering (CDISE).
