Research match: Moderate adjacent match, same multi-omics/clinical-proteomics rationale as the HUPO World Congress but at North American scale and cost. US HUPO's standing award slate includes the Gilbert S. Omenn Computational Proteomics Award, indicating an explicit computational/database constituency relevant to Wishart's tool and database work; the Canadian National Proteomics Network partners on travel awards to this meeting, making it a practical venue for Canadian trainees from an Edmonton-based group.
