Online data treats- Human Protein Atlas
Sigma Biobloggers are web-nerdy. When we saw over 700 IHC images available on every single antibody Human Protein Atlas investigates…we went on super WEB NERD ALERT.
HPA publishes the Immunohistochemistry data profiled across normal tissue, cancer cells and cell lines for free to everyone.
