Can MS-based proteomics see what histology can’t? We profiled 83 rare paediatric adrenocortical tumours from archival FFPE tissue & found 4 proteome-defined states that predict survival better. Now in @eBioMedicine, led by Rainer Claus & Andreas Metousis. doi.org/10.1016/j.ebiom.2026…

~8,000 proteins per tumour. The 4 states cut across histology and stratify survival more sharply, a 5-protein classifier reproduces them, and each state shows distinct candidate vulnerabilities. A foundation for proteome-informed precision therapy.

SPARCS: Deep Visual Proteomics-style laser microdissection meets genome-wide CRISPR screening. Find genes behind how cells look, isolate them, profile them by mass spec.
Now in @CellCellPress! Tweetorial from @niklas_a_s follows🧵

Out now in @CellCellPress: ✨SPARCS✨, a
platform for discovering the genes behind complex cellular phenotypes.
SPARCS combines Al-powered image analysis with automated laser microdissection to precisely isolate cells from large mutant libraries.

That's a wrap on #HUPO2026 Singapore! 🎉 Congrats to Katherine Madden (🥇 Poster Competition), Elena Kratz (runner-up) & Kathrin Korff (Thesis Competition runner-up). And to alumni Jesper Olsen, Akhilesh Pandey & Florian Rosenberger, & to Judith Steen, on their HUPO awards! 👏
Thank you to every speaker who shared their research, every delegate and every partner.
This congress would not have been possible without you. Together, we've pushed the field of proteomics forward in ways that will echo well beyond Singapore.
See you next year in Italy!

New preprint: with ADAPT-MS, discovery plasma proteomics becomes a diagnostic tool for ovarian cancer. We separate benign from malignant adnexal masses and generalize to 5 validation cohorts. Collaboration with @ErnstLengyel @OvCa_UChicago.

Proteomics analysis has always lived in its own universe. AlphaPeptTools puts it in #scverse instead, so that proteome, transcriptome & spatial data sit in one ecosystem. 11 search engines (DDA+DIA) read in, proteomics-specific statistics, #scverse native.
