Community Action on FAIR Data will Fuel a Revolution in Materials Research
Data - arguably the most important product of worldwide materials research investment - are rarely shared. The small and biased proportion of results published are buried in plots and text licensed by journals. This situation wastes resources, hinders innovation, and, in the current era of data-driven discovery, is no longer tenable. In this comment, we identify opportunities for synergistic, collaborative, and global actions to assemble large quantities of FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) (1) materials data.
