Does anybody know about a database, database schema, data model, etc., for modeling information about next gen sequencing methods or experiments?
We do most of our tracking at the level of a "sample" and a "sequencing type", but a sample can have multiple libraries that have each been prepped in different ways (e.g. different fragment lengths). For sequencing type, we might call it "RNA-Seq", but is it total stranded, poly-A selected, etc.? There is a lot more complexity here than what we currently track, and as we expand out, I don't want to re-invent the wheel.
Anybody know of any existing solutions? I could make use of anything from a full featured product down to an E-R diagram.
Thanks,
Michael
