PowerTalks Seminar Series – Stephen Barnes, Ph.D. (April 18, 2025)

Metabolomics and data science: data structure, interpretation and discovery

Summery
Dr. Stephen Barnes discussed the origins and data interpretation of metabolomics, his personal journey in the field, and his role in organizing a workshop on metabolomics. He also detailed the process of analyzing samples using a column, the challenges of interpreting large amounts of data, and the use of software for data analysis. The discussion also covered the use of mass spectrometry in analyzing patient samples, the process of converting cholesterol into bile acids, and the findings of various studies on metabolomics.
