Pre-Congress Webinar Series
HUPO ReCONNECT 2021 is swiftly approaching and we have another webinar lined up on October 18, 2021: Real-World Precision Medicine: Proteogenomics to Accelerate Drug Development and Patient Care. This HUPO session showcases clinical researchers discussing their stories and strategies to move proteomics towards better patient/clinical care. During this interactive broadcast, learn about the insight of:
- Microscaled proteogenomics technology for predicting response of triple negative breast cancer
- Development of robust targeted platforms for clinical laboratory tests, drug development, and clinical trials

The Final Countdown to the Functional Human Proteome
Our understanding of human biology at the molecular level has gone from sequencing the human genome in 2001 to experimentally validating over 90% of the human proteome in 2020. Now that the protein “parts list” is almost complete, it is time to turn to our efforts to annotate the function of these human proteins, i.e. to complete the functional human proteome. The C-HPP neXt-CP50 pilot project launched in 2018 aims to characterize 50 functionally uncharacterized but identified PE1 proteins (uPE1 proteins). Read more...

Bringing the Community Together to Evaluate and Improve Glycoproteomics Software
Profiling of intact glycopeptides at scale from complex biological mixtures (glycoproteomics) remains a considerable analytical challenge and a frontier in proteomics. It is recognised that the lack of efficient search engines tailored to the unique challenges associated with large-scale glycopeptide analysis continues to hinder the rapid expansion and democratisation of glycoproteomics technologies beyond specialist laboratories.

Congratulations to our three HUPO ECR Manuscript Competition finalists
The HUPO Early Career Researcher (ECR) Initiative would like to extend a big thank you to everyone who entered the ECR Manuscript Competition. The competition was fierce. We would like to further congratulate our three finalists who will be presenting their research in a dedicated session at HUPO ReCONNECT 2021 on November 17th at 23:00 (UTC).
- Dr. Yangsheng Liu (Yale University, USA
- Dr. Stacey Malaker (Yale University, USA)
- Dr. Mehdi Bouhaddou (University of California, USA)
A cash prize of $1,000 will be given to the winner and prizes of $500 will be awarded to the runners-up. Learn more about our finalists here...

HUPO ReCONNECT ECR Networking Hour on
November 16th, 2021 at 21:15 (UTC)
Are you attending HUPO ReCONNECT 2021? If yes, join us for the ECR Networking Hour which is an open forum session to bridge the digital, cultural, and continental gaps so that early career researchers can meet, share, and create connections for future collaborations and support in their job search. Participants are encouraged to engage with their cameras on and join in our icebreaker and proteomics-related networking activities. In preparation for the ECR Networking Hour, participants are also encouraged to set up a LinkedIn or Twitter handle to keep the engagement going beyond November 16th.

Submit an Abstract to the Graduate Student Poster Competition by September 10th
The ECR Initiative highly encourages all graduate students to submit an abstract for the HUPO ReCONNECT poster competition, sponsored by Molecular Omics! The competition serves as a platform to highlight the important contributions of Master’s and Ph.D. students to the proteomics field. In a dedicated session on November 15th at 20:00 (UTC), eight finalists will have the opportunity to present their poster and be evaluated by an expert committee, which will select a winner ($300 prize) and two runners-up ($150 prizes). The deadline to apply is September 10th, 2021, at 11:59PM (PST). Find all the information on how to apply to the competition here...

Gained in Translation
Can you speak more than one language? Are you interested in contributing to a global effort to make proteomics more visible? Are you interested in increasing your visibility within the scientific community? If you answered yes to any or all of these questions, HUPO Marketing and Outreach Committee (MOC) would love to hear from you. We are looking for individuals who are willing to translate existing and new HUPO material from English to different languages. Get more information here...
