ELIXIR node event Proteomics bioinformatics

View event

Date: 18 - 22 July 2022

This course provides hands-on training in the basics of mass spectrometry (MS) and proteomics bioinformatics, search engines and post-processing software, quantitative approaches, MS data repositories, the use of public databases for protein analysis, annotation of subsequent protein lists, and incorporation of information from molecular interaction and pathway databases.

This course is organised in association with the Vlaams Instituut voor Biotechnologie (VIB).

In-person course

We plan to deliver this course in an in-person manner onsite at our training suite at EMBL-EBI, Hinxton.  Please be aware that we are continually evaluating the ongoing pandemic situation and, as such, may need to change the format of courses at short notice. Your safety is paramount to us; you can read our COVID guidance policy for more information. All information is correct at time of publishing.

Keywords: Mass spectrometry, Protein function, Protein annotation, Quantitative proteomics

Venue: European Bioinformatics Institute, Hinxton

Region: Cambridge

Country: United Kingdom

Postcode: CB10 1SD

Organizer: European Bioinformatics Institute (EBI)

Host institutions: European Bioinformatics Institute

Target audience: The course is aimed at research scientists with a minimum of a degree in a biological discipline, including laboratory and clinical staff, as well as specialists in related fields. The practical elements of the course will take raw data from a proteomics experiment and analyse it. Participants will be able to go from MS spectra to identifying and quantifying peptides, and finally to obtaining lists of protein identifiers that can be analysed further using a wide range of resources. The final aim is to provide attendees with the practical bioinformatics knowledge they need to go back to the lab and process their own data when collected.

Capacity: 30
