Night on the Danube is not shabby.

Not that you need more reasons to take a Skyline class.

Really enjoyed your image based profiling vignettes at the Indiana University CCBB retreat today @drannecarpenter.bsky.social and @runxishen.bsky.social !

Join us in a fun, crazy and interesting interdisciplinary research project that combines protein biophysics, evolutionary genomics, biomolecular archaeology, and textile research to resolve species identity and post-translational modifications in the structural proteins collagen and keratin

🚨 HEADS UP: If you haven't submitted a comment on the OMB proposal yet, there's still time - but it's running out! There are only 2 days left to push back against Russell Vought's attempt to give political appointees unprecedented control over federal research funding. Take Action: zurl.co/qTjQP

Did you write your comment yet on the OMB rules on federally funded science yet? No? Don’t worry, you can do it this weekend. Here are some resources that can help you get started.

Put my public comment in yesterday- still a couple of days left - make sure to read up on the how to personalize and mention specific provisions that will impact your research.

If the proposed OMB rules pass, the Trump admin could strip funding for scientific researchers at any time if they decide a project no longer fits the "national interest.” Have you filed a comment yet? The deadline is Monday, July 13. #AcademicSky

Tired of AI-generated figures? I asked our talented scientific illustrator Manon Zuurmond to draw some of the instruments and lab equipment we missed in NIH's otherwise fantastic BioArt resource. First batch now available as CC BY. Free for everyone to use in publications: github.com/Center-for-P...

Purple passionflower taking over my backyard this year! Craziest north American native flower?

SORRY typo in the link here's the right one givebutter.com/USS2026

If you aren't following these yet- worth checking out!

What is coming for #SDRF is huge; we have managed in 20 templates most of the relevant experimental design in #proteomics, including non-MS; #crosslinking, #metaproteomics (soil, water, human gut), DIA/DDA; clinical metadata, oncology proteomics; and single cell #SCP github.com/bigbio/sdrf-...

Acquisition news for bottom up and top down proteomics with Thermo acquiring Proteinaceous and MSAID. Proteinaceous was founded in 2016 (possibly earlier) as a spin out from Neil Kelleher’s lab at Northwestern. MSAID was spun out from Mathias Wilhelm and Bernhardt Kuster’s labs in 2019.

A new report is out that ranks Indianapolis #72 out of the 100 largest US Metros for street safety.

Anyone else having issues getting an affinity proteomics (olink) repository upload to go through on the pride gui? I'm getting an error on the last step that it's not the right file type, but it's the NPX output csv. @pride-ebi.bsky.social #teammassspec #proteomics

Production value for the closing ceremonies of @us-hupo.org was through the roof this year- cannot confirm which members were in the pit. Lessons to not leave the conference early folks!

The incomparable @garcialabms.bsky.social Mr. President of @us-hupo.org teaching us all to be Benough.

So happy to hear this @sciex.bsky.social !

This is great news, and I hope all vendors continue to support THE vendor neutral option for MS data. Regardless, it was a shame that Skyline went without funding for a year from SCIEX My dream is that Skyline is funded by all vendors continuously. All of #teammassspec benefits from the arrangement

Always set an alarm for real talk on single cell proteomics from @proteomicsnews.bsky.social @evosep.bsky.social @us-hupo.org

Hi @us-hupo.org let's science!

Happy dog in snow.

This proteomics banger from @compomics.com and @ebi.embl.org folks looks great. It is one of those titles that makes some people really excited and others let out an audible groan (I’m in the former). pubs.acs.org/doi/full/10....

Auroral substorm in Fairbanks, Alaska

#AminoAcidAdvent Day 1: Proline The kinkiest of amino acids (NSFW!), synthesized from glutamic acid, and some even call it the simplest "enzyme". Regardless, its a pro move to include the hydroxyproline variable mod if your abundant proteins have collagen domains... really, do this.

IUSM center for proteome analysis working with the excellent @baucumlab.bsky.social yet again for #teammassspec!💓

The newest preprint from the Baucum lab is out. Check it out :).

Striatal spinophilin enhances D2R interaction with cytosolic proteins to mediate persistent D2R agonist-induced locomotor suppression. https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.09.09.675136v1

Great science happening at IUSM!

@aaup.org has prepared materials for faculty who face these threats and harassment. 6/ www.aaup.org/issues-highe...

🤩 JOB ALERT 🤩 Come work with me and two cutting-edge LC-MS/MS systems at our brand new Mass Spectrometry Facility @iimcb.bsky.social in Warsaw! Apply here tinyurl.com/y47mzafa or send any questions my way. #TeamMassSpec please share widely!

Great collaboration with my Bloomington colleague @cris-s.bsky.social out now in #mbio #teammassspec journals.asm.org/doi/10.1128/...

First copies of my book are here!! As a new faculty member, I realized that in addition to my research job, I also had a leadership job…and I wasn’t prepared for that. This book is the guide I wish I’d had then, with the goal of helping others now.   jenheemstra.com/book

Success! We've now run almost 2000 mouse cortex and plasma samples through this assay so expect more publications referencing it very soon. Much thanks to the Skyline team and @maccoss.bsky.social #modelad #teammassspec #proteomics www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

The most recent streetview of the site has a nature preserve boundary sign still displayed more than two years after the transfer of the property.

I love my neighborhood and the people fighting for the good stuff in it.

New research shows that simply changing how a reaction vessel is positioned on a magnetic stirrer can significantly change a reaction's speed and product quality, influencing the reproducibility of results. #ChemSky #ScienceSky #EduSky

I did my own research ahead of next week's ACIP meeting rasmussenretorts.substack.com/p/meet-the-a...

Quick PSA: If you are planning a trip to Fairbanks this upcoming aurora season, the extra hours of darkness in Dec-Jan likely won't help you. In Fairbanks under quiet conditions, auroras usually don't start to appear until 9-10 pm.

I'm working on a quickstart guide for people who want to plant native plants, but don't know all the things to consider when choosing plants. I think this is inherently challenging due to the absolute mountain of caveats that goes into doing this properly. However. Here's where we're at.

🚀 We're launching quantms.org — new hub for all #quantms related projects. Explore its components #pmultiqc & #ibaqpy, and check all reanalysis we're sharing with the community: quantms.org/datasets Meet the Team and Labs behind the project 👉 quantms.org/about #OpenSource #Proteomics #ASMS2025

Genuinely delighted that @unbreaking.org is now doing our work in public. I cannot tell you what it means to be a part of it, or how much its already helped me. If my Meeting the Moment newsletter has helped you, Unbreaking is going to bowl you over. So much more ambitious and helpful. Join us!

Haven't seen my other #teammassspec folks share this xkcd enough

This is a new image from #JWST. The bright points with spikes are stars in the Milky Way. Everything else is a galaxy. Everything. Else. Is. A. Galaxy.

Interested in learning #TopDownProteomics, join us for a @asms.org Short Course on Top-Down Proteomics! Had a very successful course over the past 3 years, and excited to offer it again this year. Don’t miss out – register early! Early registration ends April 30. www.asms.org/conferences/...
