library(GEOmetadb)

if(!file.exists('GEOmetadb.sqlite')) getSQLiteFile()

con <- dbConnect(SQLite(),'GEOmetadb.sqlite')


dbListFields(con,'gse')

##  [1] "ID"                   "title"
##  [3] "gse"                  "status"
##  [5] "submission_date"      "last_update_date"
##  [7] "pubmed_id"            "summary"
##  [9] "type"                 "contributor"
## [11] "web_link"             "overall_design"
## [13] "repeats"              "repeats_sample_list"
## [15] "variable"             "variable_description"
## [17] "contact"              "supplementary_file"


Clearly, there should also be an "Organism" metadata field, e.g.:
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/query/acc.cgi?acc=GSE4032

Please advise.
