General announcements

Messages from the Psi-k trustees and other topics of relevance to the Psi-k community, e.g. community-led software codes or databases…

Due to the large number of posts recently, there is currently a delay of several weeks between posts being submitted and the corresponding emails being distributed to all users. Please bear with us while we try to improve this. In the meantime – and until this notice is removed – it would assist us considerably if you could submit only important and/or urgent posts and thus help to reduce the size of the mail queue. Under no circumstances should you resend posts multiple times when you find the emails are not distributed immediately.

In light of the Russian military offensive in Ukraine, we request that announcements relating to events, jobs and other activities associated with institutions supported by the Russian and Belarusian states are not posted to the Psi-k forum.

In March 2018, Materials Today hosted a webinar titled ‘Harnessing the Potential of Open Data in Materials Science’ with Professor Kristin Persson of the Materials Project, Dr Luca Ghiringhelli of the NOMAD and Dr Anita de Waard from Elsevier. The webinar aimed to help attendees:

  • Learn the potential benefits of sharing data in materials science
  • Learn how to use tools to detect unseen patterns or structures in data and predict materials properties
  • Understand how large publicly funded initiatives are democratizing data in materials science and how you can use them

The on-demand version of the webinar can be found online, here.

As follow up from the webinar we are hosting a Mendeley Group for further discussion on the topics the webinar covered. We'd love for people to get involved and offer their opinions on how to manage data, facilitate data sharing and then actually reuse the data! The dedicated discussion and provision of links to resources and research papers will run through August 2018, but there are opportunities to continue this throughout the year.

To join the Mendeley Group and discuss with peers and representatives from the groups at the webinar, please join the group by following this link (https://www.mendeley.com/community/mt-publishing-seminar/) and click “Join”. (You will need to create a Mendeley profile is you don’t have one already – it’s free and easy to do).

We look forward to you joining the discussion.

Warm regards,

Joe
