We are delighted to invite you to attend the BSPR Annual Scientific Meeting in the historic and exciting city of Liverpool on 7-9th July 2025.

The preliminary scientific programme includes:

Celebrating the Career of Rob Beynon
Bioinformatics
Single-cell and Spatial Proteomics
Clinical Proteomics
Structural & Functional Proteomics
Non-human Proteomics
Disruptive Technologies
Proteoforms & PTMs
BMSS – BSPR joint session

BSPR 2025 Speaker Line-up (subject to change as programme is finalised)

Jyoti Choudhary | Functional proteomics | Institute of Cancer Research, London

Fabian Coscia | Single cell/spatial proteomics | Max Delbrück Centre, Berlin

Immediately post-conference there will be a workshop for a small group of attendees offering hands-on training in sample preparation using the cellenONE instrument, experimental design considerations and data analysis using the bioconductor SCP package, and we will be joined for this by Christophe Vanderaa, author of the SCP package.

Places on this workshop will be limited due to the hands-on nature of the workshop. Please email Ed at e.emmott@liverpool.ac.uk to register your interest ahead of registration opening.

BSPR2025 Post-conference SCP Workshop

We are delighted to invite attendees to register for the post-BSPR2025 conference workshop on Single-Cell Proteomics, at the University of Liverpool, 10-11th July 2025.

Together with Cellenion, we will be providing a hands-on demonstration of the nPOP workflow for label-free or multiplexed single-cell proteomics on the cellenONE instrument. We will also cover experimental design, system suitability and optimisation, acquisition methods, and will be joined by Christophe Vanderaa, the lead developer of the Bioconductor SCP package who will demonstrate data analysis for single-cell proteomics in R.

Prior knowledge of R is helpful, but is not required for this workshop. Applicants should have hands-on experience with LC-MS/MS.

Places on the workshop are limited to a maximum of 20 participants. Course acceptance will be prioritised based on i) order of application, ii) availability of suitable instrumentation in the attendees lab (current or planned, and the timescale for this).

Student rate: £200
Academic rate: £300
Industry rate: £400

Lunch and light refreshments will be included.

Draft Programme

Day 1 | July 10th:

Introduction, Experimental design, System suitability, Acquisition methods and trade-offs
Hands on nPOP-training on the cellenONE

Day 2 | July 11th:

System optimisation
Data analysis in R with the SCP package.
Best practice, and future directions.
