Scientist, still hanging around the UC Davis Genome Center. I guess I currently have 11 protons, because people keep telling me i'm Sodium Fine ;)

Excited to share our work at @natcomms.nature.com
We used single cell proteomics to define the functional heterogeneity of human neutrophils in glioblastoma, finding pro and anti-tumorigenic effector states invisible to scRNAseq.
SCP will revolutionise immunology, this is just the start

I don't know exactly what this all means, but I'm running cascadia github.com/Noble-Lab/ca... on my genome centers A100 80GB GPU so it's probably really cool I'm guessing

I've been very impressed with the Ceres Nano-Trap enrichment beads so far. www.ceresnano.com/nanotrap-peak . I just quantified over 2200 proteins from Dog Plasma. Including reliably seeing KITLG (Stem Cell Factor) which is in the pg/ml range I think. Let's see O-link do that in in dog ...Pfft.

Quick heads up - there will soon be a job posting for a Staff Scientist / Senior Staff Scientist in our lab in Copenhagen to support all our mass spec proteomics adventures!
Great colleagues, lots of cool projects… and you’ll get to work with me 😅
Please DM if you’re interested!

wow! apparently UC Davis doesn't have access to Journal of Proteome research any more . @jyates.bsky.social do you know if this is a permanent thing ?

I try the newest version of DIA-NN, version 2.3 and its new Infini search approach on some Lumos and tismTOF HT datasets. If you're new to DIA-NN this might be a good video to watch. youtu.be/MIMnDw0loCk

If you are in Davis and will be affected by the SNAP benefits cut, go to Central Park at 9 pm on weekdays for the Night Market. It’s run by good people, I’ve checked it out and gotten a couple of things from it myself, and there was plenty of food - they collect surplus food from nearby restaurants.
