This presentation discusses standards for sharing functional genomics data. It summarizes lessons learned from the Minimum Information About a Microarray Experiment (MIAME) standard, including that simply depositing data is not enough - metadata, analysis code, and usable formats are also needed for reproducibility. For high-throughput sequencing data, a Minimum Information about a high-throughput Nucleotide Sequencing Experiment (MINSEQE) standard is proposed with similar requirements as MIAME. The presentation emphasizes keeping standards simple while ensuring machine-readability for reuse.
