    Talk (invited)

    Large language models (LLMs) are emerging as a new interface between researchers, scientific data, and computational tools. In materials science, they offer opportunities to simplify access to complex workflows, accelerate data-driven research, and support inverse materials design. However, the reliability and scientific utility of LLMs depend critically on the availability of standardized...

    Talk (invited)

    ICAT is a flexible solution for managing scientific metadata and data from a wide variety of domains following the FAIR data principles. In addition to the core service providing relational models for scientific and administrative metadata, there are a number of additional components that extend the functionality to provide web-based user interfaces, DOI minting and landing pages, plugin-based...
