Proteomics at the Frontier: Python Hearts, Tumour Maps and Better Blood Tests
If you want to watch biology in motion, watch the proteome: it shifts with disease, treatment, and time. Mass spectrometry provides a window onto this moving picture, which is getting dramatically better right now: new instruments quantify thousands of proteins in minutes, not hours, making population-scale and even routine clinical proteomics realistic for the first time, opening up new opportunities for drug discovery, therapy and diagnostics.
