I expect that most people who work with chemical safety information understand the challenges of organizing data between disciplines. So you may be interested in this webinar, The webinar consists of 7 Flash Talks by international speakers & a Panel Discussion

Time: Sep 22, 2022 12:00 PM in Eastern Time (US and Canada)

Topic: What is a Chemical? Handling Chemical Data Across Disciplines

Description

IUPAC is the world authority on chemical nomenclature, terminology, and standardized methods of measurement, and is engaging in a concerted effort through collaboration with the broader chemistry and data science communities to translate a range of assets and activities into the digital domain.

WorldFAIR Chemistry is one of several case studies in the global WorldFAIR Initiative directed by CODATA and the Research Data Alliance to connect diverse activities across disciplines and geographies.

This webinar aims to highlight the status of working with descriptions of chemical substances, databases, and ways to implement FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) data principles across the chemical enterprise. In this webinar, we are hosting experts from polymer science, material science, geoscience and geoinformatics, environmental science, cheminformatics, and astrophysics. Invited speakers will present their flash talks, followed by a panel discussion.

WorldFAIR “Global cooperation on FAIR data policy and practice” is funded by the EC HORIZON-WIDERA-2021-ERA-01-41 Coordination and Support Action under Grant Agreement No. 101058393.
