Through collaboration and the meaningful exchange of information and data, we intend to draw a comprehensive roadmap of human gene function and use this as a foundation to revolutionize the way medicine and healthcare are delivered.
To this end, members of the RNAi Global Initiative are actively engaged in promoting the concept and implementation of minimum information standards to facilitate data sharing within the extended RNAi community. Building on established standards such as MIAME (Minimum Information About a Microarray Experiment), the RNAi Global Initiative has contributed work towards a community-wide effort known as the Minimum Information About an RNAi Experiment (MIARE). These reporting guidelines were developed in part by a large inter-laboratory benchmarking study and in part by workshops and discussions amongst the RNAi Global Initiative members. For more detailed information and to provide input, please visit www.miare.org.
