Two inspiring days in Berlin just wrapped up with our scverse hackathon on single-cell and spatial proteomics and it’s hard not to feel energized by what this community can do together.
We will have our next community meeting on Tue, March 17, 2026, 11AM CST/ 9AM PST !
Lucas Diedrich and Vincenth Brennsteiner, will be presenting on Alphabase and Alphapepttools: tools to make proteomics analyses easier.

scverse conference 2026 will take place in Copenhagen, October 12–14. ✨
Three days of all-things-single-cell and open-source tooling and community in real life.
More details soon but for now, mark your calendars.

See you in Copenhagen 🇩🇰
Across the hackathon, teams worked on:
• data analysis workflows for single-cell and spatial proteomics
• shaping best practices and documentation for the field
• expanding core data structures to better support proteomics needs

• strengthening connections with the R ecosystem and existing tools there
• integrating single-cell proteomics, spatial proteomics, and spatial transcriptomics
• tackling metadata standards and interoperability challenges
We’ll be sharing a detailed blog post in the coming days with everything that was built, discussed, and what comes next.
Stay tuned 🚀
As part of the scverse Proteomics Consortium, a community-driven effort that lives under scverse and shares its open, interoperable, and collaborative mission, we brought together researchers, developers, and domain experts to push forward what multimodal single-cell biology can look like.
What stood out most was how naturally these efforts connect back to the broader vision of scverse: building a unified, extensible ecosystem for all things single-cell
A big thank you to our sponsors who made this possible: 10x Genomics, Biohub, Proteintech, Lamin, and Pfizer.
