|Interest=I am a materials science researcher and open source software developer with a focus on open and machine-actionable data. Most recently, I have been developing small-scale tools and infrastructure for data ingestion in materials chemistry (somewhere between e-lab notebooks and full LIMS), and I would love to connect with others working towards the broader utopian visions of scholarly and scientific data, so that I can find new niches to contribute to. Recently, I co-organised a chemistry-specific conference in this area, called MADICES (https://madices.github.io/), where several domain-specific concerns on the transition towards machine-actionable data in our field were outlined, which could provide a useful field-specific angle for discussion. Another area where I have been particularly active is in a large collaboration developing the OPTIMADE specification for materials database interoperability (https://optimade.org), a JSON (and specifically not -LD) API specification that enables filtering and discoverability of crystal structure data; a goal of mine is to add a semantic layer to this API to unleash its full potential, this, however quite a major task. I would be very interested in finding and supporting other communities and disciplines through this same process, and believe I can contribute both on the ideas side and in software development.
