Interesting that it quotes MIAME (minimum information about a microarray experiment) as an example of community-driven standardisation. When MIAME was being formulated, it drew in part, and learned from, the history of the PDB.

It is also a field where (I am told) the raw data really are useless without metadata about the experiment.

Regards,
Peter.

Within it I see that one of the UK agencies states:-
vii. What resources will you require to deliver your (Data management

Greetings,
