Are you using DIA mass spectrometry in proteomics?
We have just put this paper online: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
Here, we came up with some Recommendations for Quantitative Data-Independent Acquisition (DIA) Proteomics using Controlled Quantitative Experiments (CQEs)

In life sciences there are two types of people in my experience: those that embrace and exploit omics and other large scale data technologies and those who work on one problem at the time. I had many collaborators from either side.

The financial crisis of the HE sector in the UK now leads to increased numbers of grant and fellowship applications, pushing down the success rates. Since also overheads increased, in some cases we will see success rates halved.
There is a BBSRC fellowship which will have a success rate of 5%.

Sigh. Want to go to two conferences in France and ideally take the train to reduce my CO2 output.
To get to Paris I can either spend £500 to take the train or fly for £88.
This is so fucked up.

I would like to share our latest work: After years of optimisation, we have developed a flow cytometry-based method to isolate pathogen-containing phagosomes. Paired with sensitive proteomics, this provides exciting new insights into host-pathogen interactions!
