Mass spectrometry and proteomics: All you ever wanted to know but were afraid to ask.

Matthias Trost, the new Professor of Proteomics, would like to invite all institute PGR students, post-docs and PIs to attend a lecture series on the basics in mass spectrometry and proteomics that he is presenting as part of the Faculty's PGR Development Programme

(http://www.ncl.ac.uk/fms/postgrad/skills/documents/17_4116NCLUNI2017SDPBrochure_LOW-RES.pdf).

 

The lectures cover what Matthias considers the absolute basics in mass spec and proteomics, including the newest methods developed in the last years. The aim would be that this basic knowledge will help you designing better experiments and understand possibilities as well as limitations of proteomics.

 

PGR students should register attendance in the usual manner (https://workshops.ncl.ac.uk/) so that the session appears in your eportfolio. Post-docs and PIs do not need to register.
