The main aim of this training school will be to present the advanced spectroscopic techniques applied to the quality characterization of saffron, in combination with chemometrics. The basic principles and latest tools of NMR and other spectroscopic FT techniques will be also presented. A practical NMR section will be performed at Bruker laboratories, covering the NMR sample preparation, data acquisition, processing and chemometric evaluation of data. In addition, advanced multivariate statistical protocols applied to spectroscopic techniques will be presented in theoretical and practical sections. Total amount of admitted candidate trainees will be admitted and up to 9 will be reimbursed by COST office. Candidates should complete the ONLINE REGISTRATION FORM, a short CV and a Motivation Letter for admittance at the training school. Rules for selecting the candidates are based on both “first come first served” and on the basis of previous experience in spectroscopic analysis, chemometric and saffron metabolomics.
