Dear biostars,
I am wondering what do you do if any author do not share his/her published data with you ? Usually I send an email request after checking their supplemental and public database (ex: GEO) links or others in their paper carefully. Most of the time they do respond to my requests. However sometimes I never get any response from either first or corresponding author regrading sharing their data even after multiple requests. It is really frustrating as the guidelines of that journal (Cell, Nature) clearly state that the data should be public. Do you have any similar experience ? If you write any complaint to the editor, does it work ?
Thanx in advance
Sorry that it is not really a bioinformatics question
yep, that's not really a bioinformatics question. You'd better ask http://academia.stackexchange.com/
thanx but do you think reposting this question there would make you admin angry :) ?
not at all :-)
