Metadata integrity in bioinformatics: Bridging the gap between data and knowledge.

ABSTRACT: In the fast-evolving landscape of biomedical research, the emergence of big data has presented researchers with extraordinary opportunities to explore biological complexities. In biomedical research, big data imply also a big responsibility. This is not only due to genomics data being sensitive information but also due to genomics data being shared and re-analysed among the scientific community. This saves valuable resources and can even help to find new insights in silico. To fully use these opportunities, detailed and correct metadata are imperative. This includes not only the availability of metadata but also their correctness. Metadata integrity serves as a fundamental determinant of research credibility, supporting the reliability and reproducibility of data-driven findings. En
