Journal Club
We are excited to bring the Center for Innovative Proteomics (CIP@Cornell) Journal Club back for the 2025-26 academic year! If you are a graduate student or postdoc and are looking for an opportunity to present and engage your peers in a discussion on a recent publication in the field of proteomics, please consider signing up.
The CIP@Cornell Journal Club will hold discussions of scientific articles that present current proteomics technologies, tools and resources, and their applications in life science. Articles can be selected from a broad range of fields including but not limited to biology, bioinformatics, genetics, chemistry, biomedicine, nutrition, and plant biology.
The first meeting of the Fall 2025 semester will be held Thursday September 4, 2025 at 11am in 421 Weill Hall. Following meetings will be held monthly in 421 Weill Hall from 11am-12pm on the first Thursday of each month. All CIP@Cornell members and laboratory members are encouraged to attend!
To sign up, follow this link and indicate a topic or article that you would like to discuss.
