MIAME
Minimum information about a microarray experiment (MIAME) is a standard created by the FGED Society for reporting microarray experiments. MIAME is intended to specify all the information necessary to interpret the results of the experiment unambiguously and to potentially reproduce the experiment. While the standard defines the content required for compliant reports, it does not specify the format in which this data should be presented. MIAME describes the minimum information required to ensure that microarray data can be easily interpreted and that results derived from its analysis can be independently verified. There are a number of file formats used to represent this data, as well as both public and subscription-based repositories for such experiments. Additionally, software exists to aid the preparation of MIAME-compliant reports. MIAME revolves around six key components: raw data, normalized data, sample annotations, experimental design The design of experiments (DOE ...

FGED Society
The Functional GEnomics Data Society (FGED) (formerly known as the MGED Society) was a non-profit, volunteer-run international organization of biologists, computer scientists, and data analysts that aims to facilitate biological and biomedical discovery through data integration. The approach of FGED was to promote the sharing of basic research data generated primarily via high-throughput technologies that generate large data sets within the domain of functional genomics. Members of the FGED Society worked with other organizations to support the effective sharing and reproducibility of functional genomics data; facilitate the creation of standards and software tools that leverage the standards; and promote the sharing of high quality, well annotated data within the life sciences and biomedical communities. Founded in 1999 as the "Microarray Gene Expression Data (MGED) Society", this organization changed its name to the "Functional Genomics Data Society" in 2010 to reflect th ...
