Background:

Growing demand for public repositories of high-throughput gene expression data.
Need for a flexible and open system for data submission, storage, and retrieval.

Purpose of the Study:

To introduce the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) as a public repository.
To describe GEO's design and its role in complementing in-house databases.

Main Methods:

Development of a flexible and open data repository design.
Establishment of three central data entities: platforms, samples, and series.
Public accessibility via the World Wide Web.

Main Results:

GEO facilitates submission, storage, and retrieval of heterogeneous data sets.
