Was fun to be part of this!
Huge thanks to our collaborators —
Britta Velten (@brittavelten.bsky.social)
, the Klingmüller lab at DKFZ (@klingmuelab.bsky.social), and the Winter team at Thoraxklink Heidelberg
— for their contributions 🙏
We invite you to try out msBayesImpute and welcome any feedback or suggestions! 💬

Very nice framework to handle missing values in proteomics data by combining probabilistic factor models (alike MOFA) and suitable likelihood functions to account for values missing not at random. Take a look 👇
🚀 Excited to share our new preprint: msBayesImpute - A Versatile Framework for Addressing Missing Values in Biomedical Mass Spectrometry Proteomics Data
👉 Improves imputation accuracy, normalization, and differential expression detection

CompBio method developers: software that only runs on your computer and is not available via a repository like CRAN, PyPI, Bioconductor, is not a proper research output —
just like a set of scribbled notes on your desktop is not the same as a preprint or a paper.
Finish the job.
