The global proteomics market is valued at USD 12.54 Billion in 2016. This market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 11.7% during the forecast period to reach USD 21.87 Billion by 2021. The global market exhibits potential for significant growth and is propelled by the increasing need for personalized medicine, R&D expenditure, technological advancements, and increased funding for proteomics projects. In this report, the global proteomics market is segmented on the basis of instrumentation technology, application, reagent, services & software, and region. On the basis of application, the market is segmented into drug discovery, clinical diagnostics, and other applications. The clinical diagnostics segment accounted for the largest share of the market in 2015. This is attributed to the increased understanding of the relevance of investigating and understanding patterns of protein expression for diseases and drug development.

Conference Sessions:
Track 1: Proteomics & System Biology
Proteomics is an emerging field that has been highly enabled by the human genome project. Proteins are the products of genes, the machinery of the cells in our bodies. When genes are disrupted, the proteins are also affected. When pathogens infect us, causing disease, proteins play a key role in signaling the presence and ridding us of these invaders. Almost every process that occurs in our cells – from the metabolization of simple sugar to the division of cells – is dependent on proteins for smooth operation. In general, proteomics seeks to detect and quantify as many proteins as possible.
Track 2: Chemical Proteomics & Profiling Drug Targets
Chemical proteomics is a branch and improving area of chemical biology that finds to design small molecule probes to understand protein function. In the context of natural products, chemical proteomics can be used to identify the protein binding partners or targets of small molecules in live cells. The direct detection of drug-protein interactions in living cells is a major challenge in drug discovery research. Recently, we introduced an approach termed thermal proteome profiling (TPP), which enables the monitoring of changes in protein thermal stability across the proteome using quantitative mass spectrometry.
Track 3: Multiomics for Precision Medicine
Systematical studies of clinical and pathological mechanisms and identification of optimal therapeutic targets through integrative analysis of multi-omics data from different levels and resources have become an important research direction of precision medicine, which would provide innovative perspectives on disease study and new theoretical basis for early diagnosis, personalized treatment and medicine guide.
Track 4: Analytical Proteomics & Genomics
Proteomics are applied to identify protein modification to determine the difference between a wild type and a genetically modified organism. It is also used to study protein-protein interactions involved in plant defence reactions. Genomics is the new science that deals with the identification of all the sequences in the entire genome and involves in the genetic make-up of organisms.The genome is a complete set of genes inside a cell. Genomics is the study of Genomic sequence is used to study the functions of the numerous genes such as functional genomics and to compare the genes in one organism with the another one i.e, comparative genomics, or to generate the 3-D structure of one or more proteins from each protein family, through this we can identify structural genomics. Analytical methods such as protein identification, analysis of protein primary structure and post-translational modifications by means of the most comprehensive technologies for proteomics, mass spectrometry and bioinformatics.
Track 5: Bioinformatics and Computational Proteomics
Bioinformatics is a combination of molecular biology and computer sciences. Bioinformatics is very important for the use of genomic information to understand human diseases and to identify new ways for gene-based drug discovery and development. Computational Proteomics is about the computational methods, algorithms, databases and methodologies used to process, manage, analyze and interpret the data produced in proteomics experiments. As in many scientific disciplines, the final goal of Computational Proteomics is to infer knowledge models (e.g. verify a hypothesis or identify proteins involved in a disease) from the inspection of biological samples.
Track 6: Clinical & Translational Proteomics
Clinical Proteomics includes all aspects of translational proteomics. As the research in molecular medicine field has moved beyond genomics to proteomics. Clinical proteomics studies can help researcher understand the characterization of cellular network, impact of the disease and its therapy. Over the years the field of proteomics has expanded with the development of mass-spectrometry to a broad and varied research areas of science. Incredible progress in instrumentation of mass-spectrometry has led to the sensitivity, accuracy and quick analysis and identification of proteins. With the advancement in science qualitative and quantitative differences in protein profiles of particular diseased vs. normal can be analyzed. Translational Proteomics involves areas of human proteomics using multi-disciplinary approaches to untangle complex disease processes.
Track 7: Innovative Fractionation & Enrichment Techniques
Phosphoproteins are often present in quite low abundance and tend to co-exist with their unphosphorylated isoform within the cell. To make their identification more practicable, the use of enrichment protocols is often required. The enrichment strategies can be performed either at the level of phosphoproteins or at the level of phospho-peptides. Both approaches have their advantages and disadvantages. Most enriching strategies are based on chemical modifications, affinity chromatography to capture peptides and proteins containing negatively charged phosphate groups onto a positively charged matrix, or immunoprecipitation by phospho-specific antibodies.
Track 8: Proteomics Technologies
The origin of proteomics technologies for global detection and quantitation of proteins creates new opportunities and challenges for those seeking to gain greater understanding of diseases. The high passing proteomics technologies are combining with the advanced bioinformatics and are extensively used to identify the molecular signatures of diseases based on protein pathways and signaling cascades. The mass spectrometry plays a vital role in the proteomics and has to become an indispensable tool for the molecular and cellular biology. While the potential is high, many challenges and issues remain to be unsolved, such as mining low abundant proteins and integration of proteomics with genomics and metabolomics data. Even so, proteomics is the base for constructing and extracting useful knowledge to biomedical research
Track 9: Biomedical Sciences In Proteomics
Biomedical research is generally known as medical research. And it is the basic research, applied research, or translational research conducted to aid and supports the development of knowledge in the field of medicine.Proteomics is used in many areas of research such as discovery of markers for diagnosis and vaccine candidates, understanding pathogenic mechanisms, and also in the study of expression patterns at different time points and also in response to different stimuli, and in elucidating the functional protein networks. Proteomics analysis involves in the sample preparation, protein separation, and protein identification.
Track 10: Innovative Mass Spectrometry Techniques
Mass spectrometers can acquire qualitative and quantitative information on a large scale to study protein expression, protein interactions and modifications, in complexes, organelles, cells and tissues. The currently available technological platforms and approaches offer a wide selection for proteomics experiments from low to high throughput, from shotgun discovery to targeted validation.
Track 11: Cancer Epigenetics
Epigenetics, the study of potentially heritable changes in the gene expression (active versus inactive genes) and that does not involve the changes to the underlying DNA sequence – a change in phenotype without a change in genotype and which in turn affects how cells read the genes. And also epigenetic change can have more damaging effects that can results in diseases like cancer. At least three systems including DNA methylation, histone modification and non-coding RNA (ncRNA) and associated gene silencing are currently considered to initiate and sustain epigenetic change. Cancer epigenetics is the study of somatically heritable changes to molecular processes that influence the flow of information between the DNA of cancer cells and their gene expression patterns. the technology most frequently used for the analysis of clinical tissue samples is the two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2DE) are combined with the matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS).
Track 12: Metabolic Disorders & Metabolomics
When abnormal chemical reactions occurs in your body and disrupt the process it is known as metabolic disorder. There are different groups of disorders. Some affect the breakdown of amino acids, carbohydrates, or lipids. Another group, mitochondrial diseases, affects the parts of the cells that produce the energy. Metabolomics ,it is the study of low molecular weight molecules or metabolites are found within cells and biological systems. The metabolome is a measure of the inputs and outputs of biological pathways and it is often considered to more representative of the functional state of a cell than other ‘omics measures such as genomics or proteomics. In addition, many metabolites are conserved across the various animal species, facilitating the extrapolation of research findings in the laboratory animals to humans. Common technologies are used for measuring the metabolome include the mass spectrometry (MS) and also nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR), which can detect the hundreds to thousands of unique chemical entities (UCE).
Track 12: Stem Cell Proteomics
Proteomics it is a series of technology and platforms driven by advancements in mass spectrometry and bioinformatics that encompass protein identification, the relative quantitation of proteins and peptides, their subcellular localization, and studies of post-translational modifications and protein-protein interactions. Stem cell biology has been influenced by these approaches and has evolved in the post-genomics era. Implementation of proteomic applications brought many changes in stem cell biology.
Track 14: Imaging & Single Cell Proteomics
Single-cell genomics is advancing rapidly and it is generating many new insights into complex biological systems, ranging from the diversity of microbial ecosystems to the genomics of human cancer. It focus on the technical challenges of making measurements that start from a single molecule of DNA, and then explore how some of these recent methodological advancements have enabled the discovery of unexpected new biology. Methods for the genomic analysis at the single-cell resolution enable the new understanding of the complex biological phenomena. Single-cell techniques are ranging from flow cytometry and microfluidics to PCR and sequencing these are used to understand the cellular composition of complex tissues, it helps to find new microbial species and perform genome-wide haplotyping.

Guests will take a moment to “chill” out by walking into a larger-than-life ice cube that refreshes with music and a cold blast cooled by liquid nitrogen, along with a video souvenir of their experience. The Cooling Station is the perfect way to recharge during an exciting weekend of local events. It showcases how customers can beat the heat this summer with FPL’s energy-saving tips and tools – including the new mobile app and the Online Home Energy Survey – and turn themselves into energy experts by taking control of their usage and bill.

Guests can also participate in “Take Flight with Kites” with Frost Science, presented by the Miami Downtown Development Authority, as they learn about the history of kites and how they fly, plus make and decorate their own kites.

Cost: Free

Saturday, September 23rd join Kim Cameron and her puppet friend Emma at Books and Books for a reading from her ocean themed children’s book series Seaper Powers: In Search of Bleu Jay’s Treasure! Appropriate for ages 5-9, the Seaper Powers series communicates positive messages about self-confidence, friendship, and the environment. The children will journey with Kim and Emma through the ocean, tumbling across waves to discover treasure with the help of new sea critter friends made along the way. Guests will enjoy a puppet reading, short movie based on the book, and a meet and greet with Q&A afterwards.

In search of Bleu Jay’s Treasure: A magical tale about a little girl (Emma) who discovers special seagrass off the island of St. Thomas. It transforms her body so that she can talk to fish! Not only does she make new friends, she sets off on a new adventure to find buried treasure!

Kim Cameron is a true believer in inspiring and nurturing kids. She is a vocal instructor/mentor with Guitars Over Guns, performing with puppets. While on tour in the Caribbean, she met a 12-year-old who had a fascination with octopi. This brief encounter inspired the creation of Mr. Octopus, a children’s tune featuring an 8-year-old whom Kim recently signed to her record label. After completing the song, her co-writer and guitarist, John DePatie, encouraged her to take it to next level by writing a children’s book using the song as the impetus. They called the book Seaper Powers, in Search for Bleu Jay’s Treasure.

*************** TIMMY REGISFORD *******************
Timmy Regisford is simply put, one of the great legends of dance music. The inception of his internationally acclaimed Club Shelter parties in NYC since 1991 helped pioneer the soulful house music sound that has shaped the face of house music today.

Trinidad-born, Regisford is known for his brand of soulful dance music. He started in 1985 at WBLS radio station in New York City, where he worked as Assistant Music Director, later being promoted to head Music Director of the station. In 1988, he became A&R Director of Atlantic Records, signing such acts as Miki Howard and Levert. His next career step embarked on working for MCA Records as their A&R Director, where he developed artists Loose Ends and Colonel Abrams. He would soon go on to sign acts Guy and Eric B & Rakim. Regisford later became Vice President of A&R at Motown Records, signing acts Milira, Blaze, Basic Black, Today, and Johnny Gill. Along with his A&R work for these labels he is credited in many remix projects with Patti LaBelle, Steel Pulse, New Edition, Bobby Womack, Gladys Knight & the Pips, The Boys, Diana Ross, Gerald Alston and Stevie Wonder. In 1996, Regisford became Vice President of A&R at Dreamworks Records. Timmy Regisford was also one of the founding people behind the Shelter parties in New York City, as well as the resident DJ.

Artists to create art exhibition to protest racism.

The aftermath of this weekend’s events that left 36 peaceful protesters injured and one dead at a KKK and White Supremacist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia has sparked local and national outcry for change. The local community of Miami based artists of color by the name of BRiCK have organized an event to promote awareness, unity and social justice.

The art and multi-media event focused on the exchange of knowledge, cooperative economics, creative expression, and continuance of the dialogue on freedom. Well known artists such as Ivette Cabrera, LaToya “Swarmmode” Mathis, Blackbrain, Steelshadow, Courtney Harris and Olandland will be exhibiting controversial artworks as well as large scale interactive art installations that will encourage visitors to take part in the movement to end racism.

“BRiCK is an event that is focused on what we believe to be the main principles of creating the foundation for progressive change for People of Color within our community: cooperative economics, education, health and wellness, celebration-of-self and culture, and community outreach and exchange by creatives and intellectuals.”

This will be an art and PoC entrepreneur showcase featuring local businesses and artists of the South Florida community. It will also entail a panel discussion/live taping of Rock the Shell, a web series focused on discussing and building awareness of issues surrounding race, class, and gender. T he panel discussion will also include an artists talk on artworks in the exhibition,the artistic process and how their art encourages change.

Each ticket sale will include a raffle ticket to win artworks throughout the night and portion of proceeds will go to help benefit the victims of the Charlottesville attack.

Come out and help us fight oppression by taking part in the conversation for change!

Fifty-seven years ago on Sept. 6 1960, Miami Dade College opened the door to the American Dream.

The 24-hour celebration will highlight the achievements of MDC alumni, students, staff, and faculty; inspire pride; and increase awareness of the College’s profound educational, economic and cultural significance to South Florida and beyond.

The event will focus on engaging the MDC community to post stories, tweets, share images and videos about their alma mater and what I AM MDC means to them, on social media and using #iammdc. Students, faculty and staff will commemorate the history of the College with a kickoff at 10 a.m. at the Wolfson Campus in downtown Miami, followed by events at each of the school’s nine campuses throughout Miami-Dade County all day long.

For 24 hours on Sept. 6, the College will encourage members of the community whose lives have been touched by MDC to make a gift to deserving students.

Cost: $10

All began when the Italian blues singer, guitarist, and songwriter Frank Fois, at the age of 3, picked up the guitar. His passion for the music especially the Blues and Rock, led him to play and sing every day in search of his sound and his musical soul. Over the years, Frank developed a unique style, which is reminiscent of the great bluesmen like Eric Clapton, Peter Green, Mike Bloomfield and BB King. A fundamental part of his style is his voice with which manages to excite those who hear it.

During his music tour in 2013, Fois performed in Australia, the United States and in different European Countries: Germany, France, United Kingdom, Italy.

Frank lets the instrument do all the talking as he picks and bends with pinpoint accuracy. Frank’s vocals, in step with his electrifying ability on the axe, offer the complete package for this rising star, he truly puts his emotion into his music.

After moving to New York in 2014, he performed in the best clubs of Manhattan and Long Island as B.B. King Blues Club, Terra Blues, Metropolitan and many others by also jamming with various well know musicians.

During the last years, Frank played with his band “Frank Fois Band” in Europe and in the United States which includes New Jersey, California, Florida.

Cost: FREE

Join us for a FREE evening concert with Tito Puente Jr. and his Latin Jazz Ensemble in celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month on Friday, September 15, 2017. Doors open at 7 PM and the concert begins at 8 PM.

The comparison is inevitable. How could it be otherwise? Tito Puente Jr. carries his father with him – imprinted on his physical being and locked in his soul. It’s in his looks, his joy, his music. No doubt, every time Tito Jr. walks on stage – he walks in his father’s footsteps.

He dances in celebration, throws his head back in pure joy and lights up the room with that oh-so-familiar smile. Tito Jr. is on a passionate mission. The younger Puente is determined to nurture the musical legacy left by his father. He refuses to let it become a distant memory; “He was just too vibrant, too exciting. There was magic in the music my father made. It made people happy, all over the world. My goal is to keep it alive, and in doing so, expose it to a whole new generation.”

Tito Jr. has found captive audiences who echo his passion. Crowds once lured to a venue by the father’s magic have returned to enjoy the son – participating once again in the high voltage celebration that takes place on stage.

Tito Jr. reveres the magnificent, lasting impact his father had on our musical lives. Audiences the world over agree there is nothing so perfect, pure or passionate than a tribute to a father from his son. “People who don’t know anything about Latin music know my father and people always, always smile when they say his name,” he confides. That is a very special gift, and it inspires and motivates me to bring his music to the world.”

There will be a cash bar and Latin food for sale. The Littman Theater is at 17011 NE 19th Ave in North Miami Beach. Tickets are FREE! Tickets are available at Parks and Rec or at the door; for more information, please call (305)948-2957 weekdays 8-5. Music courtesy of KCC Productions.
