Julio César Espana Amórtegui
Postdoctoral Researcher
National Food Institute, Danish Technical University
Julio Espana is a postdoctoral researcher in the analytical food chemistry group at the National Food Institute at the Danish Technical University. His work focuses on improving results from official control laboratories and developing innovative analytical methods using liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC-HRMS). Julio earned his Ph.D. in chemistry from the Universidad Nacional de Colombia and has extensive experience in pesticide residues, veterinary drugs, and marine biotoxins. He has contributed significantly to the field, including his work at the EU Reference Laboratories for Pesticides and the Swedish Food Agency.
Ralf Tautenhahn
Product Applications Manager
Thermo Fisher Scientific
Dr. Ralf Tautenhahn earned his Ph.D. in Bioinformatics (2009) at the Martin-Luther University while working in the metabolomics group led by Steffen Neumann at the Institute for Plant Biochemistry in Halle, Germany. He later joined Gary Siuzdak’s group at The Scripps Research Institute and continued his work to develop algorithms and software for LC/MS data processing and interpretation. In 2013, Ralf joined Thermo Fisher Scientific as a platform manager for metabolomics software. Over the last 10 years he has overseen the development of the company's Compound Discoverer software for small molecule research.
