We're here!! Aaaand we need some help :) Calling all #proteomics researchers www.reddit.com/r/proteomics...

Another chapter of my PhD thesis has been published! We observed a strong overlap and correlation between #FFPE (formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded) and FF (fresh-frozen) tissues in #proteomics and #phosphoproteomics. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/...

Hello Waters Synapt users! Does anyone know of documents that explain how changing the values on the TriWave, TriWave DC, IMS-Config and Trapping tabs affect the mobility separation? I'm trying to better optimise for multiply charged peptides and don't want to have to figure out 1x1. #massspechelp

The more manuscript titles I read, the more convinced I am that they should all end in question marks?

Brilliant 25min watch by @veritasium.bsky.social on the geometry of protein folding, AI development, and the 2024 Nobel Prize for Chemistry. Great explaining with loads of quality clips and images. youtu.be/P_fHJIYENdI?...

After a VERY long time, it got published: rdcu.be/d8KyK. My deep thanks to Sonja, Matthias and the other authors for analysing my own cancer. Now to convince my clinicians to use it for treating me. The battle is far from over.

Can someone running XCalibur 4.5 with a Waters M-class and 96 well plates please get in contact with me? We are trying to switch to 96 well plates from 48 vial racks and are having problems. I need some guidance! #massspechelp

Interviewer: Can you explain this gap in your resume? Me: what makes you think it's any of your god damn business?

Poorly validated antibodies fuel the reproducibility crisis. YCharOS shares a protocol for antibody validation using KO cell lines. tinyurl.com/NP-article Read also the N&V. tinyurl.com/NP-comment Glad that our study is cited as an example for improving data quality. tinyurl.com/CSC-Letter
