Abstract

YPIC (Young Proteomics Investigators Club) is an inclusive group of early career researchers in proteomics from all over Europe. YPIC was founded at the 10th annual EuPA conference in Istanbul in 2016. The team aims at representing the extra-scientific aspects of being a young researcher and favoring the networking of young European scientists in proteomics. All in all, our aim is to connect and support early career researchers on their path through and beyond academia! Throughout the year, YPIC organizes career, mentoring, "Meet-the-Expert", and proteomics intro sessions. This includes the educational day at the yearly EuPA conference and our own YPIC annual proteomics gathering, where the winner of the Student Proteomics Fund is announced. The team also organizes non-scientific seasonal webinars as well as proteomics challenges.
