During the initial development of microarrays, much discussion revolved around the technology itself. The discussion has now shifted to data analysis and data sharing. There is great interest in the sharing of cDNA microarray data, but several issues related to format, quality and validation will need to be resolved before microarray data can be meaningfully integrated into other molecular databases.
