Dr. Amina Souihi

Today, on the 4th of October 2024, Amina Souihi successfully defended her PhD thesis. The opponent was Michael Witting (TU München  and Helmholtz Zentrum München) and the committee    members were Åsa Emmer (KTH), Giorgio Tomasi (University of Copenhagen), and Magnus Åberg (Perkin Elmer). The discussion reveled around retention time predictions, complementarity of different NTS methods, and […]

Guests in Stockholm!

The summer is finishing at Stockholm but we have had very exciting research visitors in the last weeks and a lot of exchange of new ideas. In the last weeks, we have had Prof. Juliane Hollender from Eawag visit the Department of Environmental Science, SU. This gave space for discussions of research activities on toxicity […]

SETAC Europe 34th Annual Meeting

Last week I had the pleasure to present at SETAC Europe 34th Annual Meeting conference in the beautiful city of Sevilla. There, I shared insights of the possibility of using endocrine activity labeled molecular networking for non-target data evaluation.  It was an amazing experience attending interesting talks, meeting many people who are excited about their work, and […]

Pittcon 2023

On my third try, I was finally able to participate in Pittcon last week. This year Pittcon took place in person in Philadelphia, US. I was lucky enough to present our recent works in two presentations, one on quantitative nontarget screening (NTS) and the other on toxicity prediction for unidentified chemicals. You can find my […]

What holds 2023?

As I am writing this, 2022 is approaching its last hours, and it is high time for a throwback to the year, my friends, and a bit of peaking into the upcoming 2023. 2022 was a very fruitful year for Kruvelab. Since I moved to Stockholm University in mid-2019 I have been building – with […]

NTS workshop and NORMAN General Assembly in

Last week of November I and Louise participated in a two-day NTS workshop on analytical techniques and implementation followed by a two-day NORMAN network‘s annual meeting in Odense, Denmark. NORMAN interlaboratory comparison of semi-quantification methods We presented the quantification strategies for the LC/HRMS nontarget screening together with a first glance at the results from the […]

Quantification and its accuracy in nontarget screening

Last Tuesday Jon Sobus from EPA presented some of the findings from a recent paper Uncertainty estimation strategies for quantitative non-targeted analysis, where we were also happy to collaborate, on the BP4NTA online meeting. People from BP4NTA meetings have been reaching out with questions on ionization efficiency-based quantification. Some of these are often asked of us and I decided […]

International Mass Spectrometry Conference 2022 in Maastricht, The Neatherlands

Last week Amina, Pilleriin, and I participated in the International Mass Spectrometry conference 2022 in Maastricht, The Netherlands. With more than 1300 participants IMSC was the first big mass spec conference in Europe after covid and a special feeling of enthusiasm was in the air. We kicked off on Monday morning with a session on […]

Nontarget Analysis for Environmental Risk Assessment SETAC Focused Topic Meeting

Recently, I attended my first in-person conference, the Nontarget Analysis for Environmental Risk Assessment SETAC Focused Topic Meeting. It was held in Durham, NC, USA from May 22 -26 2022, and it was a very intense week filled with interesting talks, posters, and meetings with other scientists. It was very nice to put a face […]
