FAIR materials database for NMR Crystallography

About the Webinar

This webinar explores the creation of a materials database for the UK solid-state NMR community, showing how it supports evolving data-sharing practices through the principles of FAIR.

Abstract

​This talk presents the ongoing work with the materials database built for the solid-state Nuclear Magnetic Resonance community in the UK. It explores the evolving data sharing needs of the NMR researchers and how the database caters to these needs while addressing each aspect of Findability, Accessibility, Interoperability, and Reusability (FAIR).

Biography

Dr Sathya Sai Seetharaman is a Computational Scientist at the Science and Technology Facilities Council, Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, Harwell. His current work focuses on developing data infrastructure and workflows to support collaborative research in solid-state NMR crystallography.

With a research background in metamaterials and industry experience in consumer electronics, he brings an applied, interdisciplinary perspective to scientific computation and advancing FAIR data practices in materials science.
