Note: the OpenAlex topic labels provided for this researcher (seismic waves, methane hydrates, earthquake detection) do not match the actual publication record, which centers on mass spectrometry imaging techniques for analyzing biological tissues and chemical compounds. Based on the publication titles, this researcher's work involves developing and applying nano-DESI (nanospray desorption electrospray ionization) mass spectrometry imaging, a technique that maps the spatial distribution of molecules like drugs and metabolites across tissue samples, often paired with microscopy methods.
