DESCRIPTION:The goal of metabolomics is to identify and quantify the comple
 te biochemical composition of a biological sample.  With the increase in g
 enomic\, transcriptomic and proteomic information there is a growing need 
 to understand the metabolic phenotype that these genes and proteins ultima
 tely control.  \n\nThe aim of this course is to provide an overview of met
 abolomics and its applications in life sciences\, clinical and environment
 al settings. Over 2 days we will introduce different techniques used to ex
 tract metabolites and analyse samples to collect metabolomic data (such as
  HPLC or GC-based MS and NMR)\, present how to analyse such data\, how to 
 identify metabolites using online databases and how to map the metabolomic
  data to metabolic pathways.\n \nThe course content will predominantly be 
 based on analysing samples from model plant species such as Arabidopsis th
 aliana but the procedures are transferable to all other organisms\, includ
 ing clinical and environmental settings.\n\nA draft agenda can be found [h
 ere](https://bioinfotraining.bio.cam.ac.uk/postgraduate/specialized/bioinf
