Absolute Basics of Chemometrics

This course provides an overview of the history, development and current use of chemometrics in fields such as clinical, environmental, flavour and fragrance & biotechnology applications and its use in method development. The course opens with a “walk-though” summary of the workflows in a chemometrics study, as an example, and goes on to outline the considerations when designing a chemometrics experiment or study including sampling and quality control, metadata and sample preparation techniques. The course will provide an overview of different Mass Spectrometry-based instrumentation and other techniques (such as NMR and Infrared) that produce data used for chemometric analysis. Who is this course for? If you have no or very little knowledge of Chemometrics and would like to improve your knowledge in this area, then this is the course for you.
