About Us

Who we are?

The ioChem-BD platform is being developed at the ICIQ research centre, in collaboration with researchers from the Universitat Rovira i Virgili, the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona and the ICREA Foundation.

During the past 10 years we have promoted the FAIR data principles , the open access to knowledge, and the free publication of research projects results. Now ioChem-BD is stimulating the production of data-driven new research and accelerating new chemistry and materials discovery.
