About
Dr. Sarah Theiner is a leading researcher in the field of bioanalytical chemistry, with a primary focus on advancing quantitative bioimaging through cutting-edge mass spectrometry. Her most impactful work centers on the development and refinement of laser ablation-inductively coupled plasma time-of-flight mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-TOFMS) for trace element analysis in biological tissues. Dr. Theiner’s major contribution lies in pioneering novel standardization methods that overcome long-standing challenges in quantification. Her highly cited 2022 study introduced an innovative approach using robotic micro-droplet dispensing to create controlled, picoliter-volume standards, enabling precise isotope dilution and standard addition techniques. This work has been cited 20 times, reflecting its significance in establishing robust, reproducible protocols for elemental bioimaging. By solving the critical problem of matrix-matched calibration, Dr. Theiner has enabled researchers to generate accurate spatial maps of metals and metalloids in biological samples—a breakthrough with profound implications for understanding disease mechanisms, drug distribution, and toxicology. Her methodological innovations continue to shape the future of quantitative bioimaging, making her a key figure in the field.
