The coupling of laser capture microdissection and proteomics is a powerful technique capable of generating reproducible, quantitative proteomes of sufficient depth from a single type of cell isolated from a mixed population, which has the potential to yield unbiased information about mechanisms of cell fate specification and degeneration in the human brain. Abstract and Poster - Human Proteome Organisation World Congress (HUPO2018), September 30th - October 03th 2018.

Raman spectroscopy can accurately and rapidly distinguish IDH1 mutated glioblastomas from their IDH1 negative counterparts. Further work is currently being undertaken on fresh, intraoperative, tumour samples.
