Metadata from the paper is often too incomplete to reuse the dataset without extra tools, even raw file species mapping is a disaster! Authors need better reporting guidelines so at least the paper is complete, or they need to make an SDRF (preferably both).

I fully agree as well, that is the endgoal! That would however require then also treating it as pub with (i) enforcable metadata and peerreview/validation; (ii) doi for citations; (iii) impact metrics for grants.
Maybe the rise of clinical datasets might push this?

Authors need to inform repositories that their paper got published, right? PRIDE has built-in automatic checks in case the authors would forget. Having a bunch of public datasets that don't link back to a paper is also not ideal. Unless there is proper metadata I'd suppose?

Up before sunrise and a little nervous, it’s my first keynote ever!
Speaking tonight at #ISMB2025 in the CompMS track about making proteomics AI ready. Expect metadata, MLMarker, and a lot of public data love. See you there!

Depends on where you want to start in your data process (raw files, PSMs, identifications?)
I'd say that AI-readiness is 75% preprocessing and getting all data in the same format plus scalability of your scripts. There are some good packages like psmutils and pyopenMS but depends on your specifics.

Really liking @tineclaeys.bsky.social's metaphor on metadata:
It's like the philosopher's stone, turning your experimental data into gold and giving it the elixir of life.

Congrats with the EuPA Bioinformatics Award, Tine!

🚧 Refactored lesSDRF; feedback welcome!

I’ve pushed a new version of lesSDRF to make high-throughput SDRF annotation faster and more intuitive.

Github issue: github.com/CompOmics/le...
Temporary app: refactorlessdrf.streamlit.app

I could use some feedback before making this the new lesSDRF πŸ™

No clear guide exists, sounds like sth we should provide!
For accession: PRIDE has a good API but different file formats can require tremendous conversions and parsing.
For submitting: lesSDRF supports up to 500 files. The team from PRIDE has amazing support so I'd contact @ypriverol.bsky.social πŸ™Œ
