Workshop: Ontologies4Chem – Limburg, Germany

This workshop focuses on chemistry-related ontologies for metadata annotation in FAIR research data management. Key goals include establishing a recommended set of ontologies for the chemistry community, enhancing their documentation in the NFDI4Chem Terminology Service, and addressing gaps or challenges in ontology usage. It’s an opportunity for participants to share examples of data annotation needs and discuss barriers.

🗓   Date: 11th-13th November 2025
📍 Location: Limburg, Germany
