Quantitative proteomics represents a powerful approach to the comprehensive identification and quantification of proteins expressed under different biological settings. The field is evolving exponentially and is accompanied by rapid technological advances, especially in the processing of samples, mass spectrometry and analysis software. The analytical power of quantitative proteomics has greatly contributed to our understanding of cellular processes in a broad array of biological contexts, from unicellular to multicellular organisms and from normal physiology to complex diseases.

The proteomics field is expected to continue expanding and become increasingly relevant to life sciences research, including in clinical settings for the discovery of therapeutic targets. To harness the power of the highly specialized technology, equipment and software requires a solid and detailed understanding of the field. This online training event aims to introduce the principles of proteomics, experimental design concepts and technological and data analysis approaches. The course will also provide an overview of the emerging applications of quantitative proteomics, giving participants a global understanding of the potential of various approaches.

Led by experts in the field, the event’s programme will include theoretical lectures and small group activities. Participants will benefit from contact with the trainers and their fellow learners and will be given the opportunity to explore the theory presented in the talks in practical terms. No prior knowledge in proteomics technology and data analysis is required, but it is assumed that participants will have competency in numeracy, basic experimental design, and the scientific method.
