The European Proteomics Association (EuPA) (www.eupa.org) is a federation of European 21 national proteomics societies. EuPA aims to strengthen and promote fundamental research and applications, as well as education and training in all areas of proteomics throughout Europe. Connie looks forward to help shape ambitious plans for the coming 3 years that will be carried […]

ASH20 Abstract Achievement Award granted to Valentina Cordo by the American Society of Hematology !

Our recent publication in Cellular Oncology (Giulia Mantini et al) entitled “Co-expression analysis of pancreatic cancer proteome reveals biology and prognostic biomarkers” is featured on the cover of the December issue.

Sander Piersma and Connie Jimenez of the OncoProteomics Laboratory participated in international benchmark study. Using harmonized mass spectrometry (MS) instrument platforms and standardized data acquisition procedures, we demonstrate robust, sensitive, and reproducible data generation across eleven international sites on seven consecutive days in a 24/7 operation mode.   This work paves the way for large clinical proteomics across multiple sites […]

Website launched for the The Cancer Proteome Atlas (TCPA) Project based on Mass Spectrometry MS-based TCPA a grass-roots initiative started by Connie Jimenez (Amsterdam UMC, The Netherlands and co-chair of the HUPO Cancer Project), who teamed up with Tiannan Guo (Westlake University, China) during the HUPO2017 meeting in Dublin. MS-based TCPA is currently a joined […]

The next generation of 15 young scientists at all levels: master students as well as new/collaborating PhD student and post-docs have been trained in all aspects of the field of proteomics (theory, wet-lab and data analysis)
