Purpose of the course The aim of this course is to give an overview of mass spectrometry based proteomics for researchers who would like to be able to apply these techniques in their own research.
Intended learning outcomes After completed the course, the student will be able to

-Define and apply common proteomics terminology
-Recognize the principles of the most common proteomics techniques
-Understand the mass spectrometry based proteomics workflow: Experimental design, sample preparation and selection of techniques
-Understand proteomics to such an extent that he/she will be able to utilize proteomics core facilities or collaborate with proteomics researchers.
-Evaluate the quality of protein and peptide identifications.
-Demonstrate how modern proteomics is applied to clinical research and to evaluate when proteomics research could be beneficial to incorporate in research projects.
-Design their own research project by mass spectrometry based proteomics.
Contents of the course Lectures and workshops on
-Overview of proteomics
-The proteomics workflow
-Basic of separation sciences: Protein and peptides
-Introduction to Mass spectrometry
-Experimental design
-Sample preparation, immunoprecipitation and enrichment strategy
-Quantitative and qualitative proteomics by mass spectrometry
-Global and targeted proteomics
-Human protein atlas and Biological validation
-Clinical applications

A practical laboratory exercise using mass spectrometry based proteomics

This course is focusing on proteomics technologies and applications, for proteomics data analysis we recommend our KI doctoral course ""Omics data analysis: From quantitative data to biological information""
Teaching and learning activities The course contains lectures, seminars, and a practical laboratory exercise using proteomics techniques. The students will plan their own project as a case study as well make an oral laboratory report.
Compulsory elements -Attendance at lectures and the practical laboratory exercise.
-Attendance at examination seminar and hand in the written examination assignment.
-Extra written assignments can be used to compensate absence.

The students are recommended to read literatures listed below in advance of the course.
Examination -Students shall describe a proteomics project (beneficially related to their research) including different aspects from the proteomics workflow. This is handed in as a written exam.
-The students shall perform an oral laboratory report
