The Royal Society of Chemistry has announced that its ChemSpider platform has won a 2010 Bio-IT World Best Practices Award for Community Service. Dr Antony Williams, VP of Strategic Development and Valery Tkachenko, Chief Technology Officer for ChemSpider, received the award at the annual Bio-IT Awards Dinner.
ChemSpider is an online resource of chemistry-related data integrating millions of chemical compounds with hundreds of online resources. It currently hosts about 25 million chemical structures that link to additional online resources such as Google's Books, Patents and Scholar offerings and the RSC's archive of over half a million articles and chemical database records.
The award was announced April 21 at the Bio-IT World Conference & Expo in Boston.
