About
Mario Thevis is a leading figure in sports drug testing, whose research has revolutionized the detection of performance-enhancing substances. His work centers on advancing analytical chemistry to combat doping, with a particular focus on developing innovative sampling and detection methods for both peptide and non-peptide agents. Thevis is renowned for pioneering the use of dried blood spot (DBS) technology, demonstrating its value as a complementary, minimally invasive matrix in routine doping control. His 2020 study on fully automated DBS sample preparation, which has garnered 54 citations, showcases a robotic-assisted approach that enables the detection of lower molecular mass doping agents, significantly streamlining anti-doping workflows. Beyond sports, Thevis has applied his expertise to public health, as seen in his 2021 work on detecting anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies from DBS specimens, highlighting the versatility of his methods during the COVID-19 pandemic. His contributions have established new standards for efficiency and reliability in analytical toxicology, making him a pivotal figure in the fight against doping and a key innovator in bioanalytical science.
