Chemistry Digital Standards: Tools for an increasingly digital research culture

Abstract

After over 100 years of developing standards for chemistry, IUPAC is moving forward towards the “Digital IUPAC” era which embraces modern practices working with data, a propensity towards Open Science and application of the FAIR Data Principles. In a recent webinar hosted by *Chemvoices platform, Fatima Mustafa, WorldFAIR Chemistry project coordinator, moderated a discussion with Leah McEwen, the chair of the IUPAC Committee on Publications and Chemical Data Standards (CPCDS), and Ian Bruno, CPCDS titular member, to enlighten the chemists community on efforts around digitizing IUPAC.
