The second day of the #EuPA2025 conference in Saint-Malo was packed with activities for our MPC members! Katalin and Svitlana presented their posters, which covered: 1) the use of proteomics in forensic investigations of crime scenes, and

We are proud of our teaching! In addition to research, we at MPC are also intensively involved in teaching. Since the MPC is part of the Medical Faculty of @ruhr-uni-bochum.de, we primarily teach medical students.

🎉 Celebrating the 6th Anniversary of Our Orbitrap Fusion Lumos Mass Spectrometer! 🎉 Installed in May 2019, last week we celebrated the 6th birthday of our incredible Orbitrap Fusion Lumos mass spectrometer. This makes it our oldest instrument in terms of those used for global proteomics studies.

Let's dive into our mass specs! Our institute first welcomed the Thermo Q Exactive HF mass spectrometer back in 2015. At the time, it was a major step forward for our proteomics work, and it quickly became a cornerstone of many successful projects.

Introducing the MPC: The Medizinische Proteom-Center is located at the @ruhr-uni-bochum.de and moved to the Center for Protein-Diagnostics (ProDi) in 2019, which was funded by the Ministry of Culture and Science (MKW) of the State of North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany.

🚨 new pre-print from the group - this work led by Despoina Goniotaki looks at the influence of abnormal tau species on endo-lysosome function using proteomics and live cell resolution imaging approaches! 👇🏾
