Where is your data?
Today marks the start of LoveDataWeek26 with this motto.
Time for us to remember that data is best archived in repositories, FAIR.
For data from publicly funded research, this is mandatory. And the DFG monitors this.

„Wo sind eure Beweise?“ Immer wieder ist das unter Beiträgen mit Klima-Bezug zu lesen. Hierzu heute mal eine Einordnung.

"Today in Chemistry History" infographic marking Dmitri Mendeleev's birthday (8 Feb 1834). The graphic highlights the date of publication of Mendeleev's first periodic table (1869) and shows the elements that were known at that time and included in the table. It also shows the elements which had yet to be discovered which Mendeleev used his table to predict the properties of.
Dmitri Mendeleev was born #OTD (8 Feb) in 1834. He's known for recognising periodic patterns in the properties of elements, using these to predict the properties of undiscovered elements. And, of course, the periodic table! wp.me/p4aPLT-8UU

Have you ever discovered your predecessor has taken data with them? Hopefully not, but it happens!
On @chemistryviews.bsky.social we present 10 foolproof (&reality-checked) ways to lose your data. Plus, of course, how you can prevent it & the tools we provide to do so.

Find the right home for your chemistry data 🧪
Not all repositories are equal — picking one that matches your data type makes your work easier to find, reuse, and cite. NFDI4Chem helps you choose a repository that fits: from Chemotion, nmrXiv & MassBank EU to RADAR4Chem.

Chatbots offer a magnificent bribe - a fast, frictionless route to information that bypasses the discomfort of learning. In this op-ed, we describe this as a Faustian bargain, in which we trade away what it means to be human & universities trade away their value

Am Montag geht’s in Mainz um Transformation. Auf mehreren Ebenen. Technisch. Gesellschaftlich. Und auch: Persönlich. Etwa um meine eigene; zum Klima-Akzeptist. Es wird zwei Perspektiven geben. Von zwei teils ähnlichen und teils sehr verschiedenen Akteuren. Ab 18:15 im Hörsaal RW1. Und im Livestream.

A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you."
The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?"
"Learned what?" she asks
Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

I know many of you who follow me don't work in climate science, but this is the biggest story in climate right now. Breaking up NCAR makes us all less safe and is another act of self-harm that will take decades to recover from.
