Project Duration: July 2021 – July 2023

The Chemistry Knowledge Base project presents the latest findings from selected research areas in an innovative way based on published research and enables (partially) automated knowledge extraction through semantic annotation of the information. To this end, a Semantic MediaWiki has been set up, in which the most important experimental data are summarized in tables. This information is linked to the structural formulas of the chemicals used in the experiments. A unique feature is the ability to edit the structural formulas directly within the wiki itself; it does not merely store static images of the molecules. This allows the results to be dynamically compiled and tailored to the user’s query. In the long term, the content of this collaborative platform is intended to be maintained by the scientific community, thereby ensuring it remains up-to-date and relevant. This enables straightforward and direct access to research results and offers a new form of knowledge representation and exchange in chemistry.
