Ghent University offers a unique proposal: the collaboration between veterinarians, physicians and scientists from different disciplines present at Ghent University takes the research to a higher level and creates many opportunities for innovation. At our Faculty of Veterinary Medicine these innovations can be tested in our own facilities and on the target species.

The Laboratory of Integrative Metabolomics is experienced in the development and validation of novel metabolomics (i.e. small molecules) methods using hyphenated and ambient mass spectrometry. The latter are applied to mechanistically elucidate the exposome-health axis and improve the diagnosis, prevention and prediction of related outcomes (i.e. obesity, food allergy, cancer, etc.) in humans and animals. Bioinformatic approaches that enable integration of metabolomics with other (omics) data (clinical, microbiome, diet, etc.) are developed as well. Transcending metabolomics from the lab to the production line (e.g. food companies) and from the bench to the bedside is a core research line.
