Comprehensive metabolic profiling, using metabolomics, has become widely accepted as a dynamic and sensitive measure of the phenotype at the molecular level, placing the technology at the forefront of biomarker and mechanistic discoveries related to pathophysiological processes. Small molecule metabolites involved in cellular function, maintenance, differentiation, growth and death are of particular interest for biologists and clinicians as potential biomarkers of pathophysiological processes to facilitate disease diagnosis and prognosis (i.e, prediction of risk and/or disease progression). This presentation will cover the applications of metabolomics leading future implementation in clinical routine. A particular emphasis will be done on newborn screening and toxicology, as well as the recent advances in volatomics.

This webinar comprises of three following presentations of 20 min each followed by 20 min of panel discussion at the end.

Chair: Dr. Elie Fux

Talk 1- "Metabolomics in inborn errors of metabolism" - Prof. David Friedecky

Talk 2- "The diagnostic properties of human volatilome" - Prof. Corrado Di Natale

Talk 3- "Metabolomics in biological and forensic toxicology" - Dr. Marie Lenski
