Research Overview
My research interest mainly focuses on applying high-resolution mass spectrometry to track the known and unknown chemicals in human biological samples by non-targeted analysis (NTA) and further discover their effects on health and disease. More specifically, NTA analysis aims to comprehensively identify compounds in complex matrices and therefore, has the potential to keep pace with the demands for data regarding the enormous and growing number of chemicals for risk assessment. Chemical mixtures analyses can also be carried out by NTA to better advance high-throughput environmental & human monitoring.
