Scientist @unimelb focusing on Proteomics and Metabolism. Loves the contradictions of nature and technology, and the mountains and the ocean.
Excited to share our data on the divergent and common signaling events between different types of exercise in human muscle. We focused on common events since these likely underlie exercise benefits, and show that S67 on C18ORF25 is an AMPK substrate that promotes muscle function.
New! Phosphoproteomics of three exercise modalities identifies canonical signaling and C18ORF25 as an AMPK substrate regulating skeletal muscle function dlvr.it/SVTKlX
Take a look at our awesome line-up for the @PMV_Australia ECR Multi-Omics Symposium on Wednesday @Bio21Institute. Everything from phosphoproteomics, coral multi-omics, doping scandals and more!
We are looking for talented scientists to join our team. Do you want to take part in finding the molecular causes of heart disease? We are seeking new members -either PhD students or post doctoral fellows- to our team at The Cardiac Proteomics Group.
It’s EAD #ZenoTime! Stay tuned for our new neuro-peptidogenomics workflow in collaboration with @tony_purcell8 @DorvashMR @MonashUni @SCIEXnews @IonOpticks to micro-sample in vivo brain secretomes with @garrondodd @MattWattUnimelb and seed funding from @UniMelbMDHS.

We're hiring! My research team @SVIResearch is looking for a new postdoctoral scientist to join us in our work to understand bone better. If you're at #ASBMR2023 (or @ANZBMSoc next week) come and chat! More details: svi.edu.au/careers/curren…
Our new preprint optimising search parameters in DIA is out. We show DIA suffers effects similar to match-between runs in DDA, with false positives detected across runs. But we offer simple solution that dramatically reduces them while maintaining proteome depth. #proteomics

Thanks @ksuhre, this is really comprehensive and growing exponentially!
Visit the table of all #GWAS with #Proteomics to read the most recent papers on pQTLs, updated 6 October 2023 with the latest UKB-PPP papers in @Nature wp.me/p6NCOp-7O
It was a pleasure working with these group of awesome physiologists and really powerful mouse models!
Now online @molcellprot - we show a stronger role of local clocks vs feeding to support liver & muscle proteomes (zt16). Special thanks from myself + @chewinclock to @JeffMolendijk & @Ben_Leo_Parker Lab for great #proteomics! #circadian #liver #myotwitter sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
Registrations for our event will close October 16th! Get in while you still can! #proteomics #metabolomics #lipidomics
Join us for the next all-day PMV symposium on the 25th of October at Bio21. In tandem with the ECR “Multiomics in Action” event showcasing work from exceptional ECR's. Morning/afternoon tea and after event refreshments are provided. Register free at tinyurl.com/pmv-omics
Here is a detailed tutorial for the pulse-chase method we recently described that allows for the quantification of the in vivo rate of protein degradation. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
An amazing new resource to understand proteome variants! science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…
Another great event on the horizon and it’s free! Great science, food, drinks and friends! 👌

Moving beyond BAT thermogenesis for metabolic benefits. Cogent argument based on human studies that pharmacologically targeting of thermogenic mechanisms in skeletal muscle might hold the key. #obesity #metabolism @LoganTownsend86 nature.com/articles/s4225…
New work from the lab showing muscle fiber and adipose depot differences in protein secretion. A nice platform to build hypotheses around tissue communication #secretome
#ArticlesinPress: Montgomery et al. @MattWattUnimelb examined the effects of #exercise training on protein secretion from fast-twitch & slow-twitch #muscle & visceral & subcutaneous adipose tissue of obese mice 🐭-- new in @AJPEndoMetab! ow.ly/3aeJ50PmUSL @UniMelb
