Information technology has revolutionized how people work and live—can it also revolutionize the way we develop new materials?<br/><br/>Programs such as the US Materials Genome Initiative and similar efforts abroad have focused on using informatics techniques to accelerate the development of new materials. These efforts include developing new computational tools for predictive modeling, experimental tools for high-throughput synthesis, processing and quantitative characterization and analysis, developing standards for digital data storage, interoperability, and analysis, and new ways of collaboration.<br/><br/>This panel discussion with Prof. Jason Hattrick-Simpers, Prof. Krishna Rajan, and Prof. Johannes Hachmann will focus on the current state of materials informatics from experimental and computational perspectives, highlighting the current limitations and promising research opportunities.
