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 2022. Read 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.
Data Sharing in Chemistry: A Data Steward’s Perspective
Sjef Öllers is a data steward working in the Department of Chemical Engineering at Eindhoven University of Technology. In this article, he talks about his role as a data steward to encourage and educate chemistry researchers to publish their data in trusted repositories.
