Aug 08, 2008

Nature Biotech has a series of papers on guidelines for reporting proteomics methods. The letters, says Frank Gibson, advertise the PSI's latest Minimum Information about a Proteomics Experiment (MIAPE) reporting guidelines for the use of mass spec (MIAPE-MS), mass spec informatics (MIAPE-MSI), and gel electrophoresis (MIAPE-GE) in proteomics. Gibson, who has his own blog, is lead author on the last one.
