Leading these (and many ongoing) projects has been demanding, exhilarating & rewarding.

They required highly coordinated collaborations among diverse experts within PTI, MIT, MGH and beyond.

Almost intentionally, looks like all of the new Thermo instrument pages are up (Astral Zoom, Excedion Pro, Optispray).
Overall vibes?
Excedion is the bigger upgrade, almost 2x faster and can now do ETD. Astral Zoom improvements are more incremental.
No change to instrument sensitivity specs.

Excited to share our work investigating how ligand residence time influences targeted protein degradation outcomes at scale, and how we can combine kinetic scout degrader approaches with mathematical modeling to accelerate hit finding and optimization!

Enjoy the weekend with a discussion about proteomic technologies & the biology progress that they can enable.

They may unblock biology research.

Worth a read
Excellent thread about affinity vs MS for plasma proteomics. It is 100% worth a read
I spend a bit of time talking to folk with plasma cohorts about MS vs affinity approaches for discovery. Thought it was worth a thread.

Most love the marketing. 5,000 proteins? 10,000 proteins? OLink was used in UK Biobank? Wow, mass spec is sooooo last year. Except life is not that simple.

We are! … or will be, we just had a hiccup with the xodus. Last year when we ditched spaces due to Musk, we went back to OG clubhouse. This time we (@ucdproteomics.bsky.social @leannewg.bsky.social) had to chat about it again, hence the delay. Expect announcements here and likely a Dec 4 POTRH.

@benneely.com any plans for continuing POTRH here?
