The GTPB is proud to announce that the above referenced hands-on  
training course is open for applications


Admission:
Candidates with adequate profile will be accepted in the next 72 hours  
after the application until we reach 20 participants.

Course description:
Mass spectrometry based proteomic experiments generate ever larger  
datasets and, as a consequence, complex data interpretation  
challenges. In this course, the concepts and methods required to  
tackle these challenges will be introduced, covering both protein  
identification and quantification. The core focus will be on shotgun  
proteomics data. Quantification through isobaric labels (iTRAQ, TMT)  
and label-free precursor peptide (MS1) ion intensities will also be  
introduced. The course will rely exclusively on free and user-friendly  
software, all of which can be directly applied in your lab upon your  
return from the course.

An introduction to available online resources and repositories will  
also be given. Here you will see how to link the results from  
proteomic experiments with external data to conduct pathway, gene  
ontology and interaction analyses.
In the course, you will also learn how to submit data to the  
ProteomeXchange online repositories, and how to browse and reprocess  
publicly available data from these repositories.

The course will provide a solid basis for beginners, but also new  
perspectives to those already familiar with standard data  
interpretation procedures in proteomics.

Note: this is a highly interactive course. It requires that the  
participants interact with each other and with the course instructors,  
in order to reach the learning outcomes in full.
