Workshop on Mass Spectrometry based Quantitative Proteomics for Beginners.


Institute of Bioinformatics (IOB) is a premier center for Proteomics and Computational Biology. IOB has established a state-of-the-art proteomics facility that is being utilized to explore and validate candidate biomarkers in a wide array of human diseases ranging from neurological disorders and infections to cancers.

Workshop Objectives:

Scientists at IOB will share their expertise in using high-resolution mass spectrometry proteomic technologies with young researchers in India, through a series of workshops. We have successfully conducted nine national workshops on high resolution mass spectrometry-based proteomics. Several faculties and students from reputed Research Institutes and Universities from India have participated in these workshops.

As a part of this 4-day long intensive training, we will introduce, demonstrate and provide theoretical underpinnings of high-resolution mass spectrometry-based proteomics technologies and their application to clinical and biological research. Each participant will get hands-on training for sample preparation and mass spectrometry-derived proteomic data analysis.
