@UCDProteomics @J_my_sci @neely615 I would love to see an AI generated video for this podcast! This is amazing!

@J_my_sci @neely615 Getting this on YouTube so you don't need to login to listen to it was way more complex than it needed to be, but I did it :)

@ItsBiniR if they are significantly more abundant in the ip samples, I would consider them as potential interactors. If same abundance in both… then just sticky noodles…

#TeamMassSpec OT-2 and Evosep owners out there. Is an OT2 configuration with a 8-channel P300 and another P20 in the 8-channel seem ok? Does it matter if I’m left or right position? Thanks!

@AJ_Brenes @UCDProteomics The preceding “s” typo is a killer one! It also takes rank 1 in my worse typos (and there is a long list of these)

@UCDProteomics Introducing a colleague as an “sexpert in quantitative proteomics”. Thank goodness the colleague has the best spirit in the word…

#TeamMassSpec as anyone come across a HYE 1:2:4 done on an Astral?

[Cat Franco @CaTFFranco]

@ProteomicsNews @ProtifiLlc Oh that makes sense, it may be a temporary delay! Thank you so much :-)

#TeamMassSpec to anyone who is using SimpliFi from protiFi to share projects with users… does the shared project update quickly on the user account or does it take some time?

Our Proteomics summer school is back for 2024! Don't want to miss it this year as we have some cool group research planned! The link below works even though it says 2023 :) https://t.co/NU4clicE9Y

@ProteomicsNews @JohnsHopkins This sucks! It sounds like you have built the right thing on the wrong place. May the next one be The place with fair recognition and even better toys!

@ItsBiniR Nooooooo

@lgamon @DRAWheatcraft @educhicano Amazing!!!!!! We all need this in our lives!

@OliverMBernhar1 That would probably be very helpful to weed out the few strays that pass statistical tests with low precision :-) Fantastic thanks! Will I see this on SN19?

[Cat Franco @CaTFFranco]

#TeamMassSpec how can you filter data in Spectronaut analysis pane and then reflect it back to Post analysis so the plots are also updated?

[Cat Franco @CaTFFranco]

@JoelisSteele @SchejbalJLab @ItsBiniR Sorry to 👀 How are you finding Ardia? Quite curious!
