Happy to share our latest preprint doing low cell number (mini-bulk) and single cell #proteomics on tumour associated neutrophils from human glioblastoma where we find multiple functional states that would be invisible to scRNAseq, some showing pro-tumoural states with potential therapeutic value
Single cell proteomic analysis defines discrete neutrophil functional states in human glioblastoma
Neutrophils are vital innate immune cells shown to infiltrate glioblastomas, however we currently lack the molecular understanding of their functional states within the tumour niche. Neutrophils are k...

Excited to introduce openDVP — an open-source framework to bring deep visual proteomics to the broader research community! It includes:
– A simplified fast-track pipeline for easy adoption
– An AI-powered option for advanced image & spatial analysis
