Proteomics

As new technology platforms push us to the limits of what’s possible, the metabolomics community is closing in on the future of the field: routine and rapid quantitative analysis.

Nearly half a century ago, J. Calvin Giddings published a letter that laid out his ideas for a new separation strategy. It resulted in a collection of techniques known as field-flow fractionation (FFF)

Ahead of ISCC & GC×GC 2015 symposium, we bring together a posse of multidimensional ranchers for a glimpse of what’s going on in the field – and what to expect at the Texan conference.

Sitting Down With... Gérard Hopfgartner, Professor in Analytical Sciences and Mass Spectrometry and Head of the Mass Spectrometry Platform of the Sciences Faculty, University of Geneva, Switzerland.

The moment we start taking technology for granted, we risk stifling future innovation and creativity.

We dived into our analytics to find the most popular online articles. Here, we present a thought-provoking quote from each of the top ten.

While Bernard Kuster and his colleagues were compiling ProteomicsDB, a separate team of researchers at Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, USA, and the Institute of Bioinformatics, Bangalore, India, tackled the challenge in a different way

In February 2001, scientists celebrated the initial sequencing of the human genome by two competing groups. Now, not one but two draft human proteomes form the next logical link in a chain.

Let’s not boast of “complete proteomes” or “protein coverage” until we correct our ignorance of post-translational modifications. Proteome analysis is more than just identifying and counting proteins.

Where does inspiration come from? I mean the insight that leads you to a new invention or that suddenly makes you aware of the solution to a problem?
