ACTIVITY REPORT

Intensive Metabolomics Course(Jan-5~9)

The Metabolomics Intensive Course was held from January 5 to 9, 2026.

At the beginning of the new year, we were pleased to welcome a visiting professor from our partner institution, the University of Bordeaux, to the University of Tsukuba.

The visiting researcher was Pierre Petriacq, Director of the Bordeaux Metabolome Facility.

The Bordeaux Metabolome Facility is a metabolomics platform that supports research in biology, environmental physiology, functional genomics, and genetics through regional, national, and international collaborations. It is also widely used for the analysis of plant-derived and other biological samples.
