The Stanford Microarray Database is currently a private database for
Laboratories at Stanford University, and their collaborators.
Stanford Researchers using microarrays from the Stanford
Functional Genomic Facility also have access to SMD for storage of
their data. Data become public once they are published or once they
are released by the experimenter. The Stanford Microarray database
curators can answer questions about additional access. Please send
e-mail to array@genome.stanford.edu.
To
view public data in the SMD Database, you need to click the green
Public Search button on the SMD
HomePage. Keep in mind that MicroArray database accounts will
only be given to internal users and verified collaborators of Stanford
University laboratories. For more information, please refer to the
Registration Protocol page
To view unpublished data in the SMD Database, you need to register.

Please note that some data in the database
are proprietary and subject to legal restriction on their use, re-use
and distribution. This includes but is not limited to Affymetrix
(license terms here) and
Agilent oligonucleotide
sequences and patented sequences. It is the responsibility of the
person viewing or downloading such data to ensure that such use does
not infringe on the intellectual property rights of others, by
agreeing to relevant licenses or obtaining necessary permission.
To enter experiments into SMD, you need an SMD account and an
account on loader.stanford.edu, and we require that they both use the
same username. Only people working in a Stanford University laboratory
or customers of SFGF may enter experiments into the SMD database. If
you are a collaborator, the person at Stanford with whom you
collaborate will be responsible for entering data generated by the
collaboration.
