Bioanalytical method to study Tryptophan metabolism in gut microbiota-host crosstalk
Host: André Müller
Biosketch
Dai Long pursued his doctoral study in analytical chemistry from Faculty of chemical technology, University of Pardubice, Czech Republic (2009-2013). He then worked as a research assistant in the laboratory of proteomics, Biomedical Research Center, university hospital Hradec Kralove, Czech Republic (2013-2015). In 2016, he joined the laboratory of algal biotechnology, institute of microbiology of the Czech academy of sciences as a postdoc, where he focused his studies on investigating bioactive compounds obtained from cyanobacteria including method development for quantification, purification, structural elucidation, target identification in human cells using multi-omics approaches.
In 10.2018, he got the postdoctoral position in the metabolomics platform (Berlin Institute of Health, Max Delbrück Center of Molecular Medicines). His main responsibilities are: method development using LC-MS/MS techniques for lipidomics, metabolomics; development of automatic pipeline for LC-MS/MS analysis using customized Robot. His main interests are metabolomics, proteomics, bioanalytical method development using LC-MS/MS and the applications of OMICS in drug discovery and in deciphering the mechanism of biological processes as well as disease development.
