6th Joint BSPR/EBI Proteomics Meeting – Multiscale Proteomics: From Cells to Organisms

Posted: 29 May 2009 | EPR | No comments yet

This meeting will look at recent advancements of proteomics for analysis across biological scales, i.e. from cells to tissues and organisms. The event aims to overcome the barriers and highlight the interfaces that allow us to take proteomics towards an integrative view of biology.
