Translational Discovery Omics II
Course content
The aim of the course is to provide the participants with: i) an overview of the major high-end quantitative proteomics technologies with focus on mass spectrometry; ii) an overview of the wealth of biological applications that quantitative proteomics screens can be applied in, including proteome quantitation post translational modification (PTM) analysis and protein-protein interactions; and iii) introduction on how to process proteomics data at different levels.
The main themes covered in the course include:
- Mass spectrometry technologies and principles for protein sequencing.
- Introduction to proteomics
- Applications of quantitative proteomics in biology. The use of proteomics in industry and academia.
BRIDGE - Translational Excellence Programme
A two-year postdoctoral fellowship in translational medicine
Upon completing the course, participants should be able to:
Knowledge
- Demonstrate a basic understanding of different mass spectrometry-based proteomics workflows and methods.
- Gain a general understanding of the main statistical concepts required for proteomics analysis.
- Comprehend different models of proteomics analysis in different research settings.
- Grasp the role of protein signaling pathways and protein-protein interactions in health and disease.
Skills and Competences
- Be able to perform mass spectrometry of biological based proteomics analysis of biological samples.
- Process raw mass spectrometry data and obtain peptide and protein identification from proteomics analysis using different software tools.
- Use data analysis and visualization programs such as MaxQuant, Spectronaut, Perseus, R, and Cytoscape and integrate proteomics data with curated datasets such as signaling pathways and protein-protein interactions.
- Understand the central aspects of translational omics and be able to discuss and communicate these to other scientists, clinicians, and the public
- Critically evaluate the results and interpretation of downstream data analysis to answer biological questions and hypotheses.
The course is organized with a mixture of student-led lectures and scientific seminars by invited speakers including technical lectures about modern proteomics technologies used to study cellular signalling pathways, protein-protein interactions and global proteome changes. In addition, the course will include group work, case studies/journal clubs, demonstrations, and practical exercises provided and supervised by the world leading specialists in the field.
