Fixing Proteomics Campaign

12 November 2009

Okay first an apology for lack of news and updates. I hope you're still with us because we've been doing a lot of behind the scenes to put Fixing Proteomics and the website in a position to do more. So this is the first blog of what we hope will be a more active period for Fixing Proteomics.

To kick things off and show we haven't just been taking an extended vaction there are now two Editorials from people who are active supporters and you can discuss them in our new forum due for official release in Dec - watch for the PR!)

One of the Editorial writers, Lennart Martens, is hosting a meeting called "QC in Proteomics" this month. Unfortunately registration closed last month but Fixing Proteomics will be there and giving updates from the ground.

We'll be there adding our stock of ideas to a mix of ingredients that includes a cross spectrum of people from academic and industrial organisations, different perspectives from various positions and many insights from current and past experiences. The raw ingredients will be simmered together in what Lennart called a "pressure cooker" (a hotel in Cambridge) for 3 days. We hope the final result will be a hearty stew that we can all enjoy and benefit from...
