I'm truly excited to share MSAID's new publication in @naturemethods.bsky.social 🎉

We compare #CHIMERYS against state-of-the-art search engines for DDA/PRM/DIA, and even push into the realm of direct infusion #proteomics. Huge thanks to the other co-first authors and everyone involved #TeamMassSpec

MSAID @msaid-de.bsky.social · Apr 22

🚨 New in @naturemethods.bsky.social
#CHIMERYS has already transformed #proteomics since 2022, powering DDA, DIA & PRM analysis in a single workflow.
Wanna know how CHIMERYS works? 👉 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Please - stop doing the screenshot no link thing on Bluesky. This platform does not punish you for posting a URL. You picked up the habit from Meta apps? Stop doing Mark Z's bidding. Link ESPECIALLY to authors, reporters, bloggers, etc. where you quote the work.

🌟 Students in Europe — want to run your own proteomics experiment?
Apply for the Student Proteomics Fund and get €5000 to make it happen!
No proteomics experience needed — just a strong idea.

If you've ever watched Sabine #Hossenfelder and felt the vibes were off, this one is for you. Still a bit shell shocked from the final book blurb

Die eskalierende #Klimakrise und der Verlust von Arten gefährden unsere Lebensgrundlagen. Die aktuelle Klimapolitik wird dem nicht gerecht. Wir brauchen eine kluge, langfristige und nachhaltige Strategie. Deshalb gehen wir mit @fffberlin.bsky.social und @ffftuberlin.bsky.social auf die Straße.

Die eskalierende Klimakrise und der Verlust von Arten gefährden unsere Lebensgrundlagen sowie wirtschaftliche Stabilität und soziale Sicherheit.

Die aktuelle Klimapolitik ist durch kurzfristiges Denken und Zögern gekennzeichnet. Wir brauchen aber eine kluge, langfristige und nachhaltige Strategie in Politik und Wirtschaft.

Deshalb gehen wir am Samstag zusammen mit Fridays for Future auf die Straße.

Sa. 20.09.2025, 12:00

Do you or your lab use the Skyline software for #MassSpectrometry #proteomics? I'm looking for instructors to help with this year's Skyline Online, a virtual workshop/crash-course for all things Skyline! I'm especially looking for early career researchers for this opportunity. Please DM!

Google won’t be forced to sell its Chrome browser and can keep paying companies to keep its search engine as the default on smartphones, thanks to a federal ruling.

In other words? Google gets to remain a monopoly and keep its harmful, anti-competitive practices.

Shameful.

Haha, you could tell they had fun getting creative xD

Another targeted blow against academia. Though it's always been wild to me how long US PhD programs can take. 6 years is just insanely long. It's good for you if you want to compete in academia, but wasted time (and underpayment) for most others

Alexander Hogrebe, PhD @alexhgo.bsky.social · Aug 28

I didn't either, but it was a fun surprise when I checked the wiki a decade later xD

Oh, and I didn't know! Yeah I doubt they're well adjusted to modern controls... But cool that it still can be played at all this way

Alexander Hogrebe, PhD @alexhgo.bsky.social · Aug 28

The opening sequence of this game (arriving in the facility by train, exploring it, talking to colleagues and getting introduced to the Anti-MS) is seared into my brain. This was such a masterpiece of building suspense to a game starting catastrophe

Alexander Hogrebe, PhD @alexhgo.bsky.social · Aug 28

My favorite one is the "Anti-Mass Spectrometer" from legendary computer game Half-Life. Physicist Gordon Freeman measures an alien sample in it, which triggers the "Resonance Cascade" that causes aliens to take over the research facility. No mention unfortunately of the "Anti-Proteome"

The Anti-Mass Spectrometer from the computer game Half-Life moments before the Resonance Cascade.

The Anti-Mass Spectrometer during the Resonance Cascade.

The Anti-Mass Spectrometer after the Resonance Cascade.
