Young Proteomics Investigators Club

The goal of the Young Proteomics lnvestigators Club (YPIC) is to favor the networking of young European scientists in proteomics. As such, we are planning several free sessions and events for all early career researchers to attend during the EuPA 2025 conference in Saint Malo.

• Educational Day (Monday, June 16)

- Proteomics 101 Session / Our Proteomics 101 session introduces key concepts, offering participants a choice between a 90-minute-deep dive into bioinformatics, focusing on essential tools and workflows for data-independent acquisition (DIA), or parallel sessions covering the basics of spatial proteomics and large clinical cohorts on body fluids with a focus on quality control (QC). 

- Career session / The aim is to explore the key skills needed for success in different proteomics career paths. We have assembled a diverse panel that can help you learn more about life as an academic, working in a core facility, roles in the proteomics industry or transitioning into the pharmaceutical sector. You will hear about our panelists experiences, interact with them during a panel discussion and have the chance to address them individually during a final round-table activity. Whether you are a young scientist reflecting on your career options or a seasoned proteomics veteran willing to hear the aims and concerns of younger generations, this session on the conference’s kick-off day is not to be missed !

•   ECR Networking Event (Tuesday, June 17)
  Bring your energy to a privatised bar in Saint-Malo for an evening full of activities and networking ! 
• Meet-the-experts session (Thursday June 19)
  An exclusive chance to sit down with proteomics experts! After a roundtable discussion, dive into conversations in small and relaxed groups.
•  ECR Scientific Highlights Sessions (Thursday, June 19)
   Join us for an engaging session in proteomics, featuring inspiring keynote speakers, in-depth talks, and dynamic flash presentations from ECRs. It will highlight cutting-edge research led by PhD candidates, postdocs, and young group leaders, showcasing their innovative contributions to diverse areas of proteomics. Do not miss this opportunity to connect, learn, and celebrate the next generation of proteomics experts.
