    Could GEO datasets which have not been published with a publication be used?

    I want to use a dataset from GEO. However, I could not find any original publication associated with this dataset. Could I use this dataset? Thanks.

    GEO datasets are in the public domain and as such they may be used for your investigations.

      Though what Felix said may be true you may want to email data submitters (as a professional courtesy), if you are planning to use the dataset in a publication.

        How long have they been public for? If it's been public for more than one year, then the dataset probably isn't much good. The authors must be struggling to have a journal publish it. Avoid those ones.

          Let's not confound the quality of the data with the quality of the story that the authors are able to spin. The data could well be excellent, but that doesn't mean you can get a paper on it published easily.

            16S/ITS Profiling vs. Shotgun Metagenomics: What Changes in Your Workflow?
            by SEQadmin2




            NGS has revolutionized clinical microbiology by offering new ways to identify and surveil pathogens without prior knowledge of the target. One popular approach is 16S rRNA and ITS amplicon sequencing, which targets specific microbial markers. But studies are increasingly incorporating shotgun metagenomics, a technique that sequences all DNA from a sample without targeting specific microbial markers. This approach allows more detailed taxonomic classification, detection...

            Multiomic Liquid Biopsy: What DNA/RNA Panels Reveal That DNA Alone Can’t
            by SEQadmin2



            Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?

            Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating
