The ability to assay the molecular composition of biological systems with single-cell resolution has revolutionized our understanding of tissue heterogeneity and function. Recent advances in single-cell proteomics (SCP) now enable the unbiased quantification of the proteome to a depth of several thousand proteins across hundreds of cells. Yet, broader adoption beyond specialized groups remains limited due to the need for specific equipment and expertise.
