SAVE THE DATE
for the 4th Ontologies4Chem workshop:
11-14 Nov 25.
We have joined forces with @NFDI4Cat @BeilsteinInstitut and @PSDI to bring together all those interested in promoting ontologies.
Last week, our trainers Dr. Annett Schröter and @the_fair_elephant were at the CRC1333 in Stuttgart, where our participant Prof Juergen Pleiss is one of the PIs.
It was a basic workshop on #Research #Data #Management with local relevance.
If you are also interested in having a workshop for your team, get in touch with us!
Thinking about working with an #ELN but don't know how to start?
Try our practical #Chemotion ELN workshop on 07.05.25
Several sessions will be accompanied by specific exercises to interactively create and edit entries.
Don't miss your chance and register now for the upcoming hands-on workshop!
- online,
- free of charge,
- learning-by-doing.
Last week we had another successful course at the Universität des Saarlandes 
It was first planned on site, but was then realised online on request 
We cater entirely to you!
Would you also like to offer a workshop for your working group/team/department?
Then get in touch
This week NFDI4Chem was at the "Fellowship oft the Data" Meeting in Jena.
We had 2 days full of knowledge sharing, exchanging resources, learning from each other's experiences, and forging synergistic teams to better support researchers and stakeholders alike.

Today is World Backup Day!
Why this is important: Because we know researchers who have irretrievably lost half a year's research work due to data loss.
Take better care of your data to avoid losing it 
- and the time it takes to recover it
.
The 3-2-1 backup rule is a helpful and proven method.
Have you ever lost data?
We invite you to the 2nd Joint Colloquium of 2025.
Join us on April 14, 2025, for an insightful talk by Prof. Isao Tanaka:
Location: Erwin Schrödinger Center, Room 0.119, Rudower Ch 26, 12489 Berlin, and online
Time: 11:00–12:00 CEST
More information: https://lnkd.in/eG2WheTW
This is a collaboration between @DAPHNE4NFDI @FAIRmat, @mardi NFDI-MatWerk, NFDI4Cat, #NFDI4Chem, and @punch4nfdi
No Backup - no Merci?
Take better care of your data to avoid losing it - and the time it takes to recover it.

Open Access and Open Data: Japanese visitors at TIB
On 31 January 2025 we welcomed two guests from Japan to the TIB. Chifumi Nishioka is an associate professor at Kyoto University and a member of the working group organized by the Japanese Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT) in order to discuss the future of scholarly communication. She was accompanied by Mami Hayashi of Chuo University Library. They were on the way to attend the Berlin Open Access Conference and stopped over in Hannover to learn about TIB’s activities concerning open access and research data management.
The Japanese guests together with TIB colleagues at the TIB Science/Technology site. From left to right: Franziska Altemeier, Nina Düvel, Janna Neumann, Chifumi Nishioka, Mami Hayashi, and Stefan Schmeja.From Open Access strategies and services to consortia and contracts
Six colleagues from different departments of TIB met with the Japanese colleagues to give short overviews of their topics and to discuss them with our guests. Stefan Schmeja and Nicola Bieg presented open access strategies and services in general as well as the coverage of publication costs in agreements with publishers (for example within TIB’s Consortia). The guests had indicated specifically that they wanted to learn about the impact of the DEAL agreements on Leibniz University Hannover (LUH) and the double role of TIB as university library and national library for science and technology in supporting DEAL. While we noticed similar approaches to open access, there are also differences: Whereas Japanese science policy has put the focus on green open access so far, in Europe diamond open access is favoured in policies on the European, national and institutional levels, including the open access policies of TIB and LUH.
Research data management at TIB
Research data management was the second topic of interest. Johannes Hunold introduced the Grman National Research Data Infrastructure NFDI in general, the role of TIB in NFDI and NFDI4Chem in particular. Janna Neumann talked about the Research Data Management Services for LUH which include training and consultation and the institutional data repository. Finally, Franziska Altemeier and Nina Düvel presented the Joint Lab Future Libraries & Research Data, which is an institution at the intersection of TIB and Hanover University of Applied Sciences and Arts (Hochschule Hannover, HsH) supporting the implementation of research data management at HsH and Universities of Applied Sciences in general.
The visit ended with a tour of the library. We were very happy to meet our Japanese guests in Hannover and to discuss the promotion of open access and research data management and TIB’s services with them.

Finding the right repository for your own data can be difficult. A new collection on Fairsharing.org, which has already been compiled according to valid and scientific criteria, is helpful here.
It is curated by one of our project managers, Christian Bonatto Minella.

Good luck with the right repository, and if you have any questions: just get in touch at helpdesk@nfdi4chem.de
REMINDER
First "Stammtisch" in 2024 is coming up
26.01.2024 14:00 - 15:00 CET
Dr. Markus Dörr will talk about "How open Semantic Web Technologies, open data formats and automation will help the Chemist to focus on science – a glimpse on LARA and SciDat"
Do they know it's #Chemistry?
Because all those delicious cookies
only turn into love handles because they taste so good.
And who makes sure of that? Thank God it's Chemistry.
In this sense: Happy Holidays 
& Merry Chemistry Everyone.
Great first day at the #nfdi4chem Consortium meeting. We are all happy to meet in person.
Hello World!
This is our first toot on mastodon. We are looking forward to get in touch with the german and international chemical community to exchange ideas about research data.
#chemie #chemistry #research #data #nfdi4chem
Today, we updated #MassBankEU to system version 2.2.3. and deployed MassBank-data release 2023.06 (DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.8005857). We added new spectra provided by Agilent Technologies, Eawag, MSSJ, LCSB and US EPA CCTE.
