NFDI-MatWerk – National Research Data Infrastructure for MSE

We support researchers in Materials Science and Engineering (MSE) with FAIR data solutions that enable new discovery.

We envision research data management (RDM) that supports every stage of a project, strengthens collaboration through easier data exchange, and integrates materials data from different techniques, including experiments and simulations.

We invite researchers with all levels of RDM knowledge to engage with an ecosystem of adaptable workflows, services, tools, and guidance that support daily laboratory and simulation work.

NFDI-proposal NFDI-MatWerk submitted

On 30 September 2020, the NFDI-MatWerk consortium submitted its proposal for the establishment of a National Research Data Infrastructure for Materials Science and Engineering to the DFG.

The consortium has had a busy few weeks: surveys were conducted, processes were developed, interviews were conducted with the community, a lot of coordination was done and, of course, writing was done. We are pleased and would like to thank all those involved and also expressly for the active participation of many members of the specialist community. For now, the main thing is to keep our fingers crossed. The DFG's extensive review process will include a colloquium and a formal statement by the consortium.
