Dear all,
We’re excited to announce our upcoming course, R/Bioconductor for Mass Spectrometry and Proteomics, taking place online from March 17-19, 2025.
Course website: https://www.physalia-courses.org/courses-workshops/course58/
Why Join This Course?
This hands-on course will guide you through the analysis of mass spectrometry (MS) data using R and Bioconductor. Learn how to handle raw MS data, identify and quantify proteins, and perform statistical analysis for proteomics research.
At the end of the course, you’ll have practical skills to:
- Manipulate MS data in R.
Leverage Bioconductor packages for exploratory and statistical analysis.
Interpret results from typical shotgun MS experiments.
Prerequisites:
- A basic working knowledge of R (data frames, vectors, syntax) is required.
- Familiarity with MS or Bioconductor is helpful but not essential, as we provide a comprehensive introduction.
Course Schedule (Berlin Time)
Monday - Classes from 2 pm to 8 pm Berlin time
During the first day, we will focus on raw MS data, including how mass spectrometry works, how raw MS data looks like, MS data formats, and how to extract, manipulate and visualise raw data.
Tuesday- Classes from 2 pm to 8 pm Berlin time
The second day will focus in identification data, how to combine them with raw data, quantitation of MS data, and introduce data structure of quantitative proteomics data
Wednesday- Classes from 2 pm to 8 pm Berlin time
The last day will focus on quantitative proteomics, including data structures, data processing, visualisation statistical analysis to identify differentially expression proteins between two groups.
