I was wondering if the publications with RNA seq data are making there data accessible on NCBI or other databases? Is such data available for re- analysis
Thanks

Sure, just do a search for 'RNA-Seq' at http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sra and you'll see a bunch of publicly available datasets. -
Some also post their data on GEO, I'm not sure which will be the preferred db in the future

I’m not a sequencing expert. I’m a purification scientist who uses NGS to evaluate workflows my group develops. With this perspective, we think about the sample first and the NGS workflow second. The sequencer is an exceptionally honest reporter, but it can only report on what you give it, so whether you get clean, interpretable data from an NGS workflow is largely determined before you begin.

Data variability is still an issue in sequencing technologies despite the advances in reproducibility and accuracy of these platforms. But the problem does not originate in the sequencing itself, but in the previous steps, before the sample reaches the sequencer.
The first step is collection, followed by preservation and sample preparation for analysis. Most scientists overlook those steps, but not being careful might just be skewing the experiment’s results.
