ioChem-BD is a platform created by researchers at ICIQ and URV. This innovative tool aims to parse, easily organise and publish the results of computational chemistry research projects. Moreover, because ioChem-BD is an open-access initiative, it allows researchers to further analyse data published by their peers, or start new studies  based on previously existing work. […]
