Proteomics Data Mining Challenge 2020
Proteomic informatics is rapidly improving, but is it finally ready to help in human disease research?
This challenge is a test of where we are now in identifying protein post-translational modifications (PTMs) that are relevant in human diseases.
Highlights:
Over 25 teams around the world have signed up for this challenge to pit their data processing pipelines for PTMs
against
A recently described LCMS analysis of the CSF of ALS patients and matched controls.
The goal of this challenge is to find the best pipelines for identifying PTM biomarkers in global proteomics data.
