The entire FAIRmat team gathers twice a year for the internal FAIRmat Project Meeting to discuss progress and upcoming tasks across all seven areas. The first Project Meeting of 2025 will take place in June at our headquarters in Berlin.
For the second time, FAIRmat is taking part in the Long Night of the Sciences! Join us on June 28 in Berlin-Adlershof, where we’ll be presenting our work alongside colleagues from the Center for the Science of Materials Berlin (CSMB).
Get behind-the-scenes access to our research center and explore interactive activities at the FAIRmat booth. Discover what FAIR and digital research data management really mean—learn through play and see how working with data can be as fun as building with LEGO!
You can find us at CSMB, Zum Großen Windkanal 2, 12051 Berlin from 17:00.

The FAIRmat Users Meeting is a central event for scientists in physics, chemistry, and materials science who are passionate about research data management (RDM) and its role in accelerating scientific discovery.
We invite you to join us for the Sixth FAIRmat Users Meeting at Ruhr-Universität Bochum for two days of talks, tutorials, and networking focused on AI- and ML-driven materials science and application of FAIR data principles for "AI-ready" research data.
What to expect:
- Invited talks from experts using NOMAD and NOMAD Oasis for AI/ML applications in computation, experimentation, and synthesis.
- Hands-on tutorials on the NOMAD AI Toolkit, downloading ML-ready datasets, and getting started with NOMAD.
- Poster session open to external contributions.
- Informal support desks for direct interaction with NOMAD developers and FAIRmat domain experts.
- Networking opportunities.
Join us in Berlin on July 7-8, 2025, for the PV Research Digitalization with NOMAD Oasis Workshop — a hands-on event introducing you to photovoltaic research data management with NOMAD.
Over two days at the CSMB, participants will:
- Learn how to apply FAIR data principles
- Build custom digital workflows
- Deploy a PV-based NOMAD Oasis
The program includes expert talks from HZB, KIT, and Marburg University labs, highlighting their advanced NOMAD Oasis installations and optimizations for PV research. Interactive sessions will guide participants through data management, analysis, and a hackathon focused on parsing specific file types and customizing search interfaces to improve data findability.
Join us to accelerate PV lab digitalization and enhance data-driven research!
Next August, FAIRmat will participate in the 7th general conference of the worldwide Psi-k community at the SwissTech Convention Center, EPFL. We are honored to contribute to this major conference on electronic structure. Stay tuned for event updates!
We are delighted to participate in the second Conference on Research Data Infrastructure (CoRDI), taking place from August 26 to 28, 2025, at RWTH Aachen University.
Organized by our umbrella organization, Nationale Forschungsdateninfrastruktur (NFDI) e.V., CoRDI’s main mission is to advance knowledge through better use of research data. Registration is open—don’t miss the chance to meet us in Aachen!
From August 26 to 29, 2025, FAIRmat will take part in the 7th Quantum (Bio-) Inorganic Chemistry Conference (QBIC VII) at the Erwin Schrödinger-Zentrum, Humboldt University of Berlin. QBIC VII will focus on computational inorganic and bioinorganic chemistry, highlighting theoretical methods, novel applications, and combined computational/experimental approaches.
The abstract submission is now open. The deadline for contributed talks is July 1; poster abstracts can be submitted until July 14.
