(Re ‐)use and (re‐)analysis of publicly available metabolomics data

AbstractMetabolomics, the systematic measurement of small molecules (<1000  Da) in a given biological sample, is a fast-growing field with many different applications. In contrast to transcriptomics and proteomics, sharing of data is not as widespread in metabolomics, though more scientists are sharing their data nowadays. However, to improve data analysis tools and devel op new data analytical approaches and to improve metabolite annotation and identification, sharing of reference data is crucial. Here, different possibilities to share (metabolomics) data are reviewed and some recent approaches and applications regarding the (re-)use and (re-)analysis are highlighte d.
