This inaugural Metabolomics and Metabolomic Imaging (MMI) workshop is designed for scientists, clinicians, and trainees from academia, healthcare, and industry, who seek to learn and discuss the frontiers of metabolomics in medicine. The central focus of this workshop is medical metabolomics and metabolomic imaging, a burgeoning field with enormous potential for medical applications, particularly in the context of malignant and neurodegenerative diseases which can present heterogenous systematic metabolic alterations that can only be collectively evaluated by metabolomics. Currently, metabolomics studies are predominantly conducted by NMR and mass spectrometry, and complemented by methodologies such as PET, hyperpolarized MR, and other methodologies. By uniting leaders from various methodological domains of metabolomics, along with pioneers in data science, artificial intelligence, and machine learning, we aim to create and foster an environment conducive to open discussion and collaboration. Our goal is to propel the development of medical metabolomics and metabolomic imaging for clinical implementation.
