A snapshot of blood serum composition reflects the health state of an individual. It can be obtained using infrared spectroscopy in a simple and inexpensive manner, but the molecular nature of the disease‐related changes therein remains poorly understood. In their Research Article on page 17060, Liudmila Voronina, Mihaela Žigman et al. used proteomics to reveal a set of proteins that contribute the most to infrared absorption of blood serum and show that they create a distinct signature of lung cancer.
