Itabashi CampusAssociate Professor Saegusa received the Encouragement Award from the Japanese Society for Mass Spectrometry

At the 72nd Mass Analysis General Symposium held at the Tsukuba International Congress Center, Epochal Tsukuba (Ibaraki Prefecture) from Monday, June 10th to Wednesday, June 12th, 2024, Daisuke Saegusa, Associate Professor at the Clinical Analysis Laboratory, Faculty Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences Sciences, Teikyo University, received the Japan Society for Mass Analysis Research Award (MSSJ RESEARCH AWARD).
In his research on the theme of "Development of a method for analyzing trace lysophospholipids using mass spectrometry," Associate Professor Saegusa has targeted in vivo lysophospholipids, which have been difficult to separate and analyze until now, and has produced many research results through many years of work on ultra-sensitive quantitative methods using LC-MS/MS ^* and visualization of tissue distribution using mass spectrometry imaging. This award is given to outstanding research that contributes to the advancement of mass spectrometry and shows promise for future development, and Associate Professor Saegusa's research results to date have been highly praised.
During the award ceremony and acceptance speech held on Tuesday, June 11th, Associate Professor Saegusa stated, "Making full use of chromatography and mass spectrometry and paying close attention to separation analysis is extremely important for obtaining highly accurate analytical data in basic or clinical research in drug discovery." Associate Professor Saegusa also received the Journal Award on the same day, it is expected that he will continue to contribute to improving the research capabilities of our university and to student education through graduation research.
