Welcoming the Structure Extractors

We are proud to welcome Regina Kohlbecher, finishing her PhD with Thomas. J. J. Müller, Heinrich-Heine-Universität Düsseldorf, Dr. Laura Mayer, formerly with PolyU GmbH, PhD with Thomas J. J. Müller, Heinrich-Heine-Universität Düsseldorf, and Dr. Mike Ong – former Postdoc with Seung Young Hong at Seoul National University, PhD with Johannes M. Wahl, Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz.

They are talented chemists who help us in bridging the gap between human- and machine-readable data and in making chemical information more accessible. With their expertise, they verify that the chemical data extracted from the Beilstein Journals meets the highest standards of accuracy, and they thus provide a vital service to the global research community. Their deep domain expertise ensures that the digitalized version of the structures and reactions are as reliable as the original research.

This initiative is a cornerstone of our mission to support the chemistry community, ensuring that high-quality, FAIR chemical information is widely disseminated and ready for the next generation of discovery.

Welcome aboard! We are incredibly grateful for your dedication. Thanks to your collective efforts, we have officially reached a major milestone: 10,000 structures extracted from the Beilstein Journals thus far 🎉!
