  • 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.

            Essential Discoveries and Tools in Epitranscriptomics
            by seqadmin




            The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...

            Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
            by seqadmin


            Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...
