GeneLab: Omics Database for Spaceflight Experiments

Oxford Academics International Society for Computational Biology – GeneLab: Omics database for spaceflight experiments

The GeneLab Data System (GLDS) is an open access database with curated ‘omics (epigenomics, genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, metabolomics) data, detailed metadata, and radiation dosimetry data for a variety of model organisms. This article describes the database content, the system architecture, and how expensive spaceflight experiments conducted aboard the International Space Station are curated and organized to maximize the scientific return on investment, while democratizing access to the vast amounts of spaceflight-related ‘omics data generated from several model organisms.
