outputs will be used in this exciting new CZI Science grant, led by Lucy Collinson The Crick!

Volunteer annotations will help us make sense of the huge amounts of data that the project will produce.

Read about the project in Lucy's thread below!

Visual proteomics lets researchers see how proteins move in cells – but it can need huge amounts of money and expertise.

A new CZI Science grant will help Lucy Collinson, Ricardo Henriques and Imperial College London’s Paul French develop a more accessible version πŸ”¬πŸŒ
