Thank You for Joining Us at the HUPO PhD Poster Competition at HUPO Connect 2020

We are delighted to announce that HUPO held its PhD Poster Competition at HUPO Connect 2020. Eight abstracts were selected by an international panel to give oral presentations of 5 minutes during a dedicated PhD Poster Competition session scheduled on Tuesday, October 20, 2020 at 07:00 PDT. From these eight presentations, three presenting authors were identified and awarded (USD $300 for the winner and USD $150 for the two runners-up) plus have their congress registration reimbursed.
 

Tuesday, October 20, 2020

14:00 - 15:00 UTC

Chair: Giuseppe Palmisano, Brazil

Xiaobo Tian

Title - A Versatile Isobaric Tag Enables Proteome Quantification in Data Dependent and Data Independent Acquisition Mode

Sep. 2014 - Sep. 2017. Nanchang University, China & Shanghai Institute of Materia Medica, China. Protein chemical synthesis
Oct. 2017 - now. University of Groningen, Netherlands. Quantitative proteomics

Canada

Jessica Nickerson

Title - Preservation of Trypsin Activity at Elevated Temperatures for Optimized Proteome Digestion

Jessica is a PhD candidate in the Chemistry department at Dalhousie University in Halifax, Canada, under the supervision of Dr. Alan A. Doucette. Her research focuses on optimizing proteome sample preparation strategies through improved understanding of protein precipitation and enzyme activity. She is also an active research associate at Proteoform Scientific Inc.

United States

Andikan Jones Nwosu

Title - Spatial Proteomic profiling of FFPE tissues using NanoPOTS

Andikan Nwosu is currently a masters’ degree student in Ryan Kelly’s laboratory at BYU. She hails from Nigeria and got a Bachelor of Science in Biochemistry from University of Lagos, Lagos Nigeria. She worked briefly before moving to the US with her husband and hopes to become a research scientist. She is interested in drug development and therapeutics for disease conditions.

Sweden

Maria Jassinskaja

Title - Ontogenic Shifts in Cellular Fate in Normal Development and Leukemia are Linked to Proteotype Changes in Blood Progenitor Cells

I have a Master of Science in Biotechnology and am now a final-year PhD student in the group of Jenny Hansson at Lund University. My research is focused on delineating ontogenic changes in the proteome and function of blood stem and progenitor cells in order to understand why children and adults show differential susceptibility to different subtypes of acute leukemia.

Canada

Joshua Charkow

Title - Ion mobility separation in a TIMS-TOF PASEF acquisition method decreases spectral complexity

Joshua Charkow is currently a graduate student in the Röst Lab at the University of Toronto. He previously completed his BHSc in Life Sciences with a minor in computing at Queen's University. His research interests involve the development of mass spectrometry-based proteomic methods for use in understanding biological systems and personalized medicine. He is presently focusing on evaluating the separation power of ion mobility in mass spectrometry based proteomics. Outside of the lab, Joshua enjoys hockey, skiing and playing guitar.

Spain

Ana Montero

Title - Identification of autoantigens with diagnostic ability of colorectal cancer by immunoprecipitation coupled to mass spectrometry

Ana Montero is a biochemist specialized in immunology by the Complutense University of Madrid. She is a PhD student at the Chronic Disease Programme of the Instituto de Salud Carlos III where she belongs to the Functional Proteomics group. Her current research interest focuses on the identification of new biomarkers for diagnosis and prognosis of chronic diseases of high prevalence, including colorectal cancer and Alzheimer’s disease, using different proteomic approaches.

Canada

Ugo Dionne

Title - Protein context shapes the specificity of domain-peptide interactions in vivo

I obtained my undergraduate degree in Biochemistry at Laval University in Québec, Canada. I then started my master’s degree in Cellular and Molecular Biology at the Faculty of Medicine of Laval University under the supervision of Dr. Bisson and later started my PhD in co-direction with Dr. Christian Landry. I am mainly interested in tyrosine kinase receptor signaling pathways and how protein-protein interaction domains regulate the assembly of specific complexes in cells.

United States

Edwin Escobar

Title - Precisely Mapping O-GlcNAc Sites using 193 nm Ultraviolet Photodissociation Mass Spectrometry

Edwin Escobar earned a bachelor of science in Biochemistry from the University of Texas at Austin. After graduating, he quickly became a Research and Development scientist at Sonic Reference Laboratory developing clinical chemistry assay using mass spectrometry. As a fourth Ph.D student, Edwin is primarily interested in glycosylation and implementing ultraviolet photodissociation for complex complems in glycobiology.
