Microarray and Gene Expression Data - MGED
The Microarray and Gene Expression Data (MGED) Society is an international organization of biologists, computer scientists, and data analysts that aims to facilitate the sharing of data generated using the microarray and other functional genomics technologies for a variety of applications including expression profiling. The scope of MGED includes data generated using any technology when applied to genome-scale studies of gene expression, binding, modification and other related applications.
The focus is on establishing standards for data quality, management, annotation and exchange; facilitating the creation of tools that leverage these standards; working with other standards organizations and promoting the sharing of high quality, well annotated data within the life sciences and biomedical communities.
Defined MGED Standards:
