A manuscript is under development by members of the Nanomaterial Data Curation Initiative (NDCI) that will explain to the greater informatics community the role of a metadata in the current efforts of data curation in nanotechnology. The NDCI was started within the National Cancer Institute’s (NCI’s) National Cancer Informatics Program’s (NCIP’s) Nanotechnology Working Group (Nano WG), but is open to the broader scientific community’s participation.

Stakeholders for this paper include groups that currently curate nanomaterial data and metadata and strategic thinkers involved in developing best practices for metadata and data curation.

Please fill out the survey below to best of your knowledge. Your response will contribute greatly toward a better understanding of the current state of utilisation of metadata as part of data curation for nanotechnology and will help advance the field of nanoinformatics.

Thank you!
