Cyclic IMS in Action: Imaging clarity with DESI XS
Join us to see how imaging data is acquired on the Cyclic IMS using the DESI XS to enhance the quality of images. Experience the latest software for data acquisition, visualization, and interpretation to determine the spatial distribution of analytes.
The session will conclude with a live Q&A where Emmanuelle Claude, Wei Rao and other members of the team will be on hand to answer all of your questions.
Key Learning Objectives:
See Cyclic IMS in action for imaging experiments for a range of applications
Find out how ion mobility resolution improves the detection and identification of a panel of analytes and the added benefit Cyclic IMS provides.
Learn how improvements in imaging techniques, including DESI XS enhance the quality of images
Presenter: Emmanuelle Claude (Consulting Scientist, Waters Corporation)
Emmanuelle Claude started at Waters Corporation in October 2000 as an Applications Chemist in the Proteomics and Genomics Marketing group, developing automated Peptide Mass Fingerprint (PMF) MS methods using a MALDI-TOF mass spectrometer. Over the years she developed several methods in the proteomics analytical space using MALDI TOF and naturally moved in starting the development of Mass Spectrometry Imaging (MSI) at Waters corporation over 15 years ago.
She has been involved with hardware and software R&D to ensure that the solutions are fit-for-purpose for the MSI community and beyond. She has worked extensively with the main MSI leaders in Europe and the US such as Prof Heeren in the Netherlands, Prof Clench, Prof Takats and Bunch in the UK and Prof Caprioli in the US. She has been a Principal Scientist since 2014 and became a Consulting scientist in 2021. Emmanuelle is managing the MS imaging application team at Waters, who are involved in developing new applications and methods for imaging by both MALDI and DESI mass spectrometry.
Presenter: Wei Rao (Principal Applications Chemist, Waters Corporation)
Wei Rao is currently working as a Principal Applications Chemist in the European Applications Laboratory at Waters Wilmslow, focusing on MS imaging and ambient MS with the DESI XS platform. He has more than 12 years of ambient MS imaging experience, and has worked in various posts in the UK, US, China, and many countries within the APAC region, bringing with him a unique global perspective to the field.
