FGED

The FGED Society was formed in 1999 at a meeting on Microarray Gene Expression Databases in recognition of the need to establish standards for sharing and storing data from DNA microarray experiments. Originally named the "MGED Society," the society began with a focus on DNA microarrays and gene expression data... The Functional Genomics Data Society (FGED) works with other organizations to accelerate and support the effective sharing and reproducibility of functional genomics data. We facilitate the creation and use of standards and software tools that allow researchers to annotate and share their data easily. We promote scientific discovery that is driven by genome wide and other biological research data integration and meta-analysis.
