This introductory proteome analysis workshop is designed to expose participants to fundamental technology platforms and current methodologies in the field of mass spectrometry-based proteomics. This sub-section of the week-long workshop includes lectures and interactive data analysis. It does not include wet lab work.
There are two options for attendance:
- Lecture, lab, and data analysis -- limited to 30 participants (If you would like to register for the full workshlp please go to https://registration.genomecenter.ucdavis.edu/events/Proteomics_2019/
- Lecture and data analysis only -- limited to 6 participants. (Please be aware that there will be several hours of free time during Monday and Tuesday, due to lab activities. See link below for last year's schedule.)
Survey Topics covered include:
-
Fundamentals of mass spectrometry and proteomics
-
Bottom-up quantitative and non-quantitative nano-electrospray proteomics tandem mass spectrometry (nESI-LC/MSMS)
-
Sample preparation and processing
-
Nano-scale HPLC & peptide-spectrum matching using open-source software
-
Introduction to quantitative proteomics including reporter ion (TMT) and data independent analysis (DIA)
-
Data analysis, using programs such as Scaffold and Skyline
Lectures will be presented by the Proteomics Core staff as well as leading regional proteomics experts. Past lecturers included scientists from UC Davis, UCSF, Stanford, Thermo Scientific and the Buck Institute (lectures subject to change). This is an intensive, practical course that is meant to give the participant enough background to allow them to take the course material and build upon and apply it to their own individual projects.
Specific course topics may change due to sample and mass spectrometer availability.
Who should attend? … Prior course participants have included faculty, post-docs, grad students, staff, and industry researchers.
What are the prerequisites? … There are no prerequisites other than familiarity with general biological concepts and an enthusiasm for learning about proteomics. Laboratory experience working with proteins and prior experience with data analysis is usually helpful.
What do I need to bring? … This data analysis portion of the workshop will be held in a computer room on the UC Davis campus, which has desktop computers running Microsoft Windows OS. You may bring your own laptop to use. However, some of the proteomic-specific software only runs on Windows.
Can I bring my own data? … We will provide experimental datasets for use during the workshop, as this helps to keep the workshop moving. There will be time, however, to discuss your own datasets and how you might work with them outside of the workshop.
How much does it cost? … For the lecture/data analysis-only option, the registration fee is $690 for current UC students, staff, and faculty, $1035 for other academic or non-profit participants and $1,725 for industry participants.
General registration is “first-come, first-served”, so sign up as soon as possible to ensure your place in the workshop. We accept credit cards, as well as UC Davis recharge accounts, for payment. Registration fees include light breakfast, lunch, and snacks, but do not include dinner, lodging or parking fees.
Are there any discounts or scholarships? … we are offering a limited number of seats for the full course (lecture/lab/data analysis), with reduced registration of $500, to current graduate students. To apply for this discount, go to
https://registration.genomecenter.ucdavis.edu/events/Proteomics_2019_grad_student_appl/.
*This application does not reserve your spot in the class. If you want to reserve your spot, please register at the non-discounted rate and you will receive a refund if your application is accepted.
**Preference is given to UC Davis Grad students. If there are available spots other grad students may be considered
Where is the workshop? … It will be held in Davis and will run from 8:00am to 5:00pm on the dates indicated. The specific location will be provided at a later date.
