Investigation/Study/Assay (ISA) infrastructure is the first general-purpose format and freely available desktop software suite targeted to experimentalists, curators and developers and that: a) assists in the reporting and local management of experimental metadata (i.e. sample characteristics, technology and measurement types, sample-to-data relationships) from studies employing one or a combination of technologies; b) empowers users to uptake community-defined minimum information checklists and ontologies, where required; and c) formats studies for submission to a growing number of international public repositories endorsing the tools, currently ENA (genomics), PRIDE (proteomics) and ArrayExpress (transcriptomics).
