18th ICC -International Congress on Catalysis
Conference
DATE: July 14-19, 2024
LOCATION: Lyon, France

The 18th International Congress on Catalysis will be held in Lyon, France, from July 14-19, 2024. As digitization has far-reaching implications for methodologies and workflows, also in catalysis research, a symposium will be dedicated to this topic and the need for FAIR data.

It will provide an opportunity to discuss the potential of digitalization in catalysis in all its aspects, including standardization of catalysis data, data sharing and curation, catalysis informatics, community-driven infrastructure, and digital research. The aim is to show a viable path for a digital transition for the community, both from an experimental and a theoretical perspective.

2nd FAIRmat Workshop on Data Exchange and Storage in Ellipsometry
Workshop
DATE: August 21, 2024 TIME: 13:00-18:00 CEST
LOCATION: Online

In this workshop, we would like to give you a short introduction to FAIR data structures. The want to present our finalization for a FAIR data standard for generic optical spectroscopy experiments and the respective specialization for ellipsometry. Via a tutorial it is presented, how NeXus files can be created and how these files can be checked, if they are compliant with the defined standard for ellipsometry. An follow-up discussion about concerns of the current standard or future ideas/wishes will be used to collect feedback for future updates.

1st FAIRmat Workshop on Data Exchange and Storage in Raman Spectroscopy
Workshop
DATE: August 22, 2024 TIME: 13:00-18:00 CEST
LOCATION: Online

In the last years we have developed a common, open and company-independent definition for the storage and exchange of raman spectroscopy data based on the FAIR principles. In this workshop, we want to introduce how this definition can be practically used for your data, i.e., how these files can be created and tested that they are compliant with the defined standard for Raman spectroscopy. A follow-up discussion about concerns of the current standard or future ideas/wishes will be used to collect feedback for upcoming updates or extensions.

FAIR Data Management of Spectroscopic Simulations
Hackathon
DATE: September 4-6, 2024
LOCATION: Berlin

We are excited to announce a dynamic event in Berlin: a three-day Hackathon focused on Materials Science simulations for methodologies going beyond DFT, taking place from September 4-6, 2024. This event provides a unique opportunity for researchers, students, and postdocs to delve into FAIR data management for their simulation codes, create tools for better management of inputs and outputs, and collaborate on improving the current data standard in a friendly environment.

Why participate?

  • Overview of a very complex topic: Introductory talks in a variety of methods which go beyond DFT simulations: GW, TDDFT, BSE, DMFT, KKR, and electron-phonon coupling methodologies.
  • Hands-on experience: Guidance from experts to create your own parsers or tools for your favorite simulation code, modify and adapt the data standard, and publish your work with the best practices in Data Management and Software Development.
  • Collaborative environment: A lot of potential networking for future projects on databases, automation, high-throughput, machine-learning, etc.
  • Publication opportunity: A future joint publication on a common data standard for these methodologies.

Places are limited, so do not miss this opportunity to be at the forefront of Materials Science and Data Management. We look forward to your participation in this exciting event!
