Integrative proteomics: structure, function, and interaction report on the 3rd joint meeting of the British Society for Proteome Research and the European Bioinformatics Institute, July 2006.

This report summarizes the highlights of the recent British Society for Proteome Research (BSPR) meeting jointly organized with the European Bioinformatics Institute (EBI) which was held at the Wellcome Trust Genome Campus, Hinxton, Cambridge, UK in July 2006. This was the third annual scientific meeting organized by the BSPR and EBI and the theme of this years meeting was Integrative Proteomics: Structure, function and interaction. A wealth of local and overseas speakers were invited to discuss both their own work and specific challenges present in modern day proteomic based experiments.
