Hi, Roumyana.

If you need the information for a single GSE, you can look at the
GEOquery package.  If you want this for many (or all) data in GEO,
look at the GEOmetadb package.  Note that, in general, GEO does not
curate the annotation and it is often not in a computable form.  If
you need more details, you could supply a little bit more detail about
what you want to do.
