At the 24th HUPO World Congress in Toronto, the theme "One Health Powered by Proteomics" emphasized the deep interconnectedness of humans, animals, microbes, and environments. In an article in Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology News, Gustav Ceder shares his impressions from this world congress together with thoughts and perspectives from some of the big players in the proteomics field...Read more

The Festival of Genomics & Biodata is UK's largest and the world's fastest growing life sciences event. This year in London HPA affiliated professor Jochen Schwenk was there to present his research on using blood proteomes for molecular health monitoring...Read more

In a publication in Clinical Proteomics a novel orthogonal strategy based on affinity proteomics and mass spectrometry was used for analytical validation of biomarkers in longitudinally collected serum samples from Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) patients...Read more

Approximately 11% of the human proteins are defined as missing proteins. These proteins lack experimental data on the protein level. In an investigation led by Sjöstedt et al, an integrated omics approach was applied to explore and identify missing proteins...Read more

Mammographic breast density is one of the strongest risk factors for breast cancer, but molecular understanding of how breast density relates to cancer risk is less complete. Studies of proteins in blood plasma, possibly associated with mammographic density, are well-suited as these allow large-scale analyses and might shed light on the association between breast cancer and breast density...Read more
