ETC Webinar Series - Registration Open!
Speaker: Oliver Raether
Date: Wednesday, February 21, 2024
Time: 7am PST / 10am EST / 4pm CET
Webinar Description:Trapped ion mobility spectrometry (TIMS) is a powerful analytical technique that separates and characterizes gas-phase ions based on their mobility in a buffer gas. TIMS has been widely applied in various fields, such as proteomics, metabolomics, lipidomics, and pharmaceutical research. It offers sensitivity, speed, and resolution for complex and challenging samples.

Speaker: Rosa Isela Gallagher, PhD
Date: Wednesday, March 20, 2024
Time: 2pm PST / 5pm EST / 10pm CET
Webinar Description: RPPA is a high-throughput protein array technology that simultaneously measures hundreds or thousands of samples on glass slides with high precision and reliability, using specific antibodies. RPPA and mass spectrometry-based protein profiling are complementary technologies for protein profiling. In attending this webinar, attendees will learn about RPPA's high-throughput capabilities and laser-captured microdissection technology. They will understand how these technologies precisely measure protein expression, modifications, and phosphorylation in tumor cells.

Apply Now for the HUPO 2024 Early Career Researcher Manuscript Competition!
Seize the opportunity to showcase your recent achievements in the dynamic field of proteomics! We invite early career researchers to apply for the 10th edition of the HUPO Early Career Researcher (ECR) Manuscript Competition, taking place at the HUPO 2024 World Congress in Dresden, Germany, October 20-24. This competition offers a unique platform for postdoctoral fellows, young clinicians, and junior faculty members to gain visibility within the proteomics community, emphasizing their significant contributions to the field.
Three finalists will be selected to present their manuscript, published during the 2023 and 2024 calendar years, in an exclusive plenary session at HUPO 2024, where an expert committee will evaluate the oral presentations to determine the "Proteomics Highlight of the Year." The first-place winner will receive a cash prize of $1,000 USD, while two runner-ups will each be awarded $500 USD. Don't miss this chance to showcase your proteomics expertise and be recognized among peers at HUPO 2024!
Deadline to Apply: April 1, 2024

In a new monthly feature within HUPOST, we will be highlighting extraordinary HUPO volunteers who lead and support many of HUPO's various Committees and Initiatives.
HUPO Marketing and Outreach Committee (MOC)
The MOC has been at work developing new ways to promote the HUPO mission, the visibility of proteomics within the scientific community and its popularization among the public, as well as gathering funding support. The MOC has been very successful in networking with other HUPO committees and initiatives and using a range of tools and activities. The MOC members are from different fields and backgrounds and at various career stages representing the diversity of HUPO.

Vera Ignjatovic (Chair) is the Assistant Director for Translational Research at the Johns Hopkins All Children’s Hospital, and a Professor of Pediatrics, School of Medicine, Johns Hopkins University. She applies proteomics to many areas of pediatric specialty care (e.g., critical care, neurology, cardiology), and sees great potential for proteomics to answer questions that can inform clinical care and improve outcomes, particularly when proteomics data are combined with detailed clinical information and other laboratory data, maximizing the ability to develop biomarker-enhanced clinical prognostic and predictive models.
Vera works closely with clinicians to harness the power of proteomics in answering questions such as: Which children being evaluated in an emergency center with signs of potential sepsis are most likely to need care in the ICU? Among children and teens who have a concussion, who will have a delayed recovery and need a comprehensive treatment protocol? Does a specific protein or a set of proteins help to better predict a specific outcome?
