Due to the complexity of genomic information and the broad amount of data produced every day, the genomic information accessible on the web has become very difficult to integrate, which hinders the research process. Using the knowledge from the Data Quality field and after a specific study of a set of genomic databases we have found problems related to six Data Quality dimensions. The aim of this paper is to highlight the problems that bioinformaticians have to face when they integrate information from different genomic databases. The contribution of this paper is to identify and characterize those problems in order to understand which ones hinder the research process, increasing the time-waste that this task means for researchers.Read the full paper here: https://link-springer-com.proxy2.hec.ca/chapter/10.1007/978-3-319-47717-6_15
