Glyco-Bioinformatics — Search Engines & File Formats — Hands-on

Build practical glyco-bioinformatics pipelines from raw LC-MS data to standardized, shareable outputs. This module focuses on glycan encodings, search engines, scoring schemes and open file formats such as mzML, mzIdentML and mzTab, together with guidelines for MIRAGE and FAIR-compliant export that plugs into downstream statistics and visualization.
