alterlab-ieu/alterlab-geo
Access NCBI GEO (Gene Expression Omnibus) for gene expression and functional genomics data — search and download microarray and RNA-seq datasets by GSE, GSM, GPL, or GDS accession and retrieve SOFT, MINiML, and series matrix files. Use when locating public expression datasets, fetching processed expression matrices, downloading a study's supplementary files, or sourcing per-study transcriptomics data for differential-expression analysis. For raw FASTQ sequencing reads by SRA/ENA run accession use alterlab-ena; for reference tissue-expression baselines (median TPM across human tissues) use alterlab-gtex; for cancer cohort somatic mutations and copy-number use alterlab-cbioportal. Part of the AlterLab Academic Skills suite.

Take alterlab-ieu/alterlab-geo from the repository into ~/.claude/skills for personal
use, or into .claude/skills inside a project.
The agent identifies a skill by the name field in its header. Two skills with the
same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.
The instructions reference pip, uv.
Without those the skill loads but fails at the first command.
