US HUPO 2025

We are excited to welcome you to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, for the 21st Annual US HUPO Conference, which will take place in the historic Loews Hotel in the heart of the city.

US HUPO 2025 features a full program of outstanding plenary speakers, a great variety of 14 scientific sessions with oral presentations, as well as educational short courses and topic-specific evening workshops. Our oral presentation sessions cover diverse and fascinating proteomic topics, such as Proteomics beyond mass spectrometry, (Pre-)clinical proteomics - from pre-phase 1 to phase 3, High throughput proteomics - tackling 1000+ samples, and Proteoforms and PTMs in health and disease: from discovery to therapeutics.

In addition, we present plenty of opportunities for young scientists to engage and to connect with their peers as well as with seasoned proteomics professionals. They will be able to present their work as one of 300 poster presentations and/or 150 lightning-talks and attend one of the many sessions dedicated to and/or organized by early career researchers.

We are grateful to all US HUPO 2025 sponsors and exhibitors, who support the conference and many academic and professional organizations that will join us. We invite you to actively participate in the scientific sessions, present your own research and enjoy the excitement and the warm hospitality of the US HUPO Conference and the city of Philadelphia.

About US HUPO

US HUPO is a 501( c ) 3 organization that engages in scientific and educational activities to encourage the use of proteomics technologies and to disseminate knowledge pertaining to the human proteome and that of model organisms. Learn more about US HUPO at www.ushupo.org.

The purpose of the organization is to:

• Promote the exchange of knowledge and research techniques via training fellowships, instructional courses and workshops, as well as organization and funding for international meetings, all primarily within the United States of America;
• Provide expert advice to governmental and non-governmental agencies on the support of human and other proteome research;
• Collect and distribute information on human proteome-related programs and projects;
• Promote open access to major resources for human proteome analysis, such as databases, collections of DNA clones, cell lines and other biological samples; and
• Participate with other international organizations involved in proteome research and related development and providing support for or assistance with their activities, including, particularly the International Human Proteome Organization (HUPO International).

US HUPO has held an annual conference since 2005 and has hosted the HUPO International World Congress three times.

US HUPO participants are responsible for making their own travel and accommodations reservations. US HUPO has NOT enlisted the services of a third party to make these arrangements on behalf of meeting participants. In the event you are contacted by a third party offering these services, proceed with caution as it may be a scam.

Accommodations

The Loews Philadelphia Hotel is also the official host hotel of the US HUPO 2025 Conference. Book your room at the Loews Philadelphia Hotel so you'll be just steps away from all of the meeting activities!

US HUPO has negotiated a special discounted group rate that is available to all conference attendees. All conference events will be held at the Loews Philadelphia Hotel. The Conference is obligated to utilize these discounted rooms, so please support our efforts by reserving your room today.

Room Rates

• $199 per night (+ taxes and fees) for single/double occupancy

Reservations can be made at the group rate until Thursday, January 23, 2025, or until the group block is sold out; whichever occurs first. The group block has sold out in past years, so you are encouraged to make your reservations early. 

Sponsor and Exhibitor Opportunities
