LIFE Capital - move people forward, proudly launches four pilot modules within the program Groningen Human Capital for Life Sciences. In close collaboration with the leading knowledge institutions UMCG and Hanze and industry partners, those courses help the life science professionals to keep ahead of the game in the field of Bioanalysis and Genetechnology.
The module is interactive, alternating theoretical explanations with practical and activating assignments. Participants are encouraged to contribute examples from their own practice, preferably prior to the start of the course. Naturally, there will be ample opportunity to ask questions and exchange experiences.
Learning objectives:
You will develop a (bio-)analytical method through a project proposal and be able to evaluate, logically combine, critique results, and provide recommendations for further research.
You will understand the consequences of deviations in obtained results and be able to advise on necessary changes in the applied methods.
You will explain the various components of an LC-MS/MS system and recommend settings for given analytes.
You will formulate a well-founded hypothesis regarding the behavior of components during sample preparation and LC-MS/MS analysis and interpret the obtained results.
You will be familiar with the regulations for quality assurance of analytical methods.
When: March 5 to May 7 (every Thursday) Duration: 5 ECTS × 28 hours = 140 hours, of which approximately 70 hours at Hanze University and 70 hours of self-study.
Target group: Professionals with a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree, or an MBO degree with at least 5 years of work experience with LC-MS.
You are an (assistant) analyst, laboratory technician, or project leader within, for example, the pharmaceutical, biomedical, or clinical-chemical sector. You already have experience working with LC-MS and wish to deepen your understanding of both HPLC and MS aspects of method development. In addition, you want to further develop your skills in sample preparation for qualitative and quantitative LC-MS analyses.
Capacity: 2–3 (currently 5–6 places are filled; ideally, we would like to have 6–8 participants in total).
