Second Talk in SF
On Sunday, September 10th, I will talk about “Technological and Social Aspects of Collaboratively Developed Chemical Information Systems (CIS)” at the ACS meeting in San Francisco.
Technical and social aspects of collaboratively developed information systems
Christoph Steinbeck, Research Group for Molecular Informatics, Cologne University Bioinformatics
Center (CUBIC), Zuelpicher Str. 47, D-50674 Cologne, Germany, c.steinbeck@uni-koeln.de
Recent years have seen the emergence of technologies allowing communities to collaboratively
develop open information systems. A prominent example is Wikipedia, a general, open encyclopedia,
now rivaling even long established commercial products. This talk will highlight what Chemistry can
learn and adopt from these new developments, exemplify technologies available and how they might
be adapted to the specific situation of chemical information systems.
