Hi Adam, We would like to apologize for replying to your question so late, but the email just arrived in our inbox today. We are sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused you.
GEO's FAQ page is a good place to start understanding how to retrieve a variety of data formats from their website (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/info/faq.html). In order to view their data in the UCSC Genome Browser, it will need to be in one of our supported formats, listed here: http://genome.ucsc.edu/FAQ/FAQformat.html. Basic information about creating a custom track can be found here: http://genome.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/help/hgTracksHelp.html#CustomTracks. If you have any questions about GEO or their data please email them at geo at ncbi.nlm.nih.gov or search their website (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/). I hope this information is helpful. Please feel free to contact the mail list again if you require further assistance.
