Date: Monday, September 16, 2024

Time: 6:00 pm Dinner and Vendor Night, 7:15 pm Presentation

Location: Shimadzu Scientific Instrument, Inc. Training Center 7100 Riverwood Drive, Columbia, MD 21046 (Directions) This will be an in-person meeting.

Abstract: Since the completion of the Human Genome Project, much has been made of the need to bridge the gap from genes and traits. As a key nexus for the many interacting ‘-omes’ (genome, transcriptome, proteome, metabolome, etc.), the proteome should offer a tight link between genotype and phenotype. Proteoforms, or all of the precise molecular forms of a protein, capture all sources of variability in protein composition (i.e., SNPs, isoforms, post-translational modifications), and thus provide crucial insights into regulation and function. Now, “single ion” mass spectrometry is poised to convert genes to proteoform signatures at a far faster rate. Recently we developed proteoform imaging mass spectrometry (PiMS), with individual ion mass spectrometry. This platform has been extended now to single-cell Proteoform imaging Mass Spectrometry (scPiMS), boosting cell processing rates by >20-fold in the field while detecting proteoforms from single cells.

FeMS+ “Out of the Shadows” Leadership Development Program

Females in Mass Spectrometry (FeMS+) is hosting a one-day leadership event in Rockville, MD for women scientists.

FeMS+ is a community-led initiative to create a worldwide network of support for women in mass spectrometry. “Out of the Shadows” is our premiere Leadership Development program for women in mid- to senior-level positions aiming to advance their career. Since 2023, we have held four “Out of the Shadows” events, in San Jose, US; Munich and Hamburg, Germany; and Singapore.

The “Out of the Shadows” event will be held on Tuesday September 10, 2024 in Rockville, MD, co-sponsored by CASSS and SCIEX. Registration is free. Application is now open and will close on July 30, 2024. To apply, please visit https://femalesinms.com/out-of-the-shadows-leadership-development-program/ The September leadership event focuses on powering up executive presence. There will be interactive professional coaching, practical exercises, and group discussion.

Chemical Tags for Quantitative Omics Workshop

August 2, 2024
University of Wisconsin – Madison on Zoom

This interactive workshop will cover the fundamentals of chemical tagging for quantifying -omics on a mass spectrometer.
This is a beginner level workshop, open to anyone who has at least six months of mass spec experience. This workshop will be a mix of lectures, demos, and discussion, topics include:
· Fundamentals and overview of chemical labeling approaches to quantitative proteomics
· Data Analysis Lecture
· Research Lecture on High-throughput quantitative top-down proteomics using intact protein-level tandem mass tag (TMT) labeling
· Applications of DiLeu tags for quantitative PTM analysis and biomarker discovery
· Development and application of isobaric tags for quantitative glycomics and lipidomics
· Research Lecture on Unlocking the secrets of complex proteotypes with sample multiplexing-based quantitative proteomics

Registration can be found at https://www.ncqbcs.com/resources/training/tagging-training/

There is no cost to attend due to generous support from the National Institutes of Health and the National Center for Quantitative Biology of Complex Systems (P41 GM108538).
