This webinar explores the development of targeted protein assays based on existing knowledge and research. It also focuses on translation of methods from preliminary screens performed on cell lines to assays for patient specimens.  

The Chairman of the 7th HFBP Prof. Paul Cordopatis announced that, according to the votes of the Ballot among the National Representatives of EPS, the 2nd Dimitrios Theodoropoulos Memorial Lecture Award is Awarded to Prof. Ernest Giralt (Barcelona, Spain).

In a letter addressed to all EPS members, Professor Alex Eberle explains the reasons of this decision of the EPS Executive Committee: all members (and new members to be) are invited to register through this website again, until 31 January 2010. 

In this webinar, we demonstrate the complete targeted protein quantification workflow step-by-step: building SRM tables, data acquisition and processing methods, followed by automated results verification, and finally method refinement. This webinar has been recorded and is now available on demand.
