9. [ARCHS4: Massive Mining of Publicly Available RNA-seq Data from Human and Mouse](https://amp.pharm.mssm.edu/archs4/) ARCHS4 provides access to gene counts from HiSeq 2000, HiSeq 2500 and NextSeq 500 platforms for human and mouse experiments from GEO and SRA.
10. [DEP-reads: Uniformlly processed public RNA-Seq data](http://bioinformatics.sdstate.edu/reads/) Read counts data for 5,470 human and mouse datasets from ARCHS4 v6 and 12,670 datasets from DEE2 for 9 model organisms by steven Ge.
11. [SRA-explorer](https://ewels.github.io/sra-explorer/) This tool aims to make datasets within the Sequence Read Archive more accessible.
12. [intropolis](https://github.com/nellore/intropolis) is a list of exon-exon junctions found across **21,504** human RNA-seq samples on the Sequence Read Archive (SRA) from spliced read alignment to hg19 with Rail-RNA.
