Monthly round-up: February 2022

Spring is almost here which means we’re launching our FAIR Data Fund 2022 Spring Call! February’s round-up from 4TU.ResearchData showcases research data stories from Chemistry and welcomes new community members. 

Welcome to new community members!

News

FAIR Data Fund 2022 Spring Call is now open!

Apply for financial aid to make your data FAIR…

A maximum budget of €3.500 is available to researchers at TU Delft, TU Eindhoven and the University of Twente to cover the costs of making their research Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable (The FAIR Data Principles). 

Applications open on Tuesday 1st March and close on Thursday 31st March 2022Read more or contact FAIRdatafund@4tu.nl for more information.

February is all about Chemistry!

FAIR data is an enabler for artificial intelligence in Chemical Engineering 

Assistant Professor of Chemical Engineering at Delft University of Technology, Artur Schweidtmann, talks about the Chemical Engineering Knowledge Graph (ChemEng KG) to process chemical information in a FAIR, 5-Star linked data format. This will enable researchers and industry to find and reuse process information, accelerating the development of processes.
