Overview

This website serves as the information portal to the National Science Foundation sponsored International Materials Institute in the emerging field of Combinatorial Materials Science and Materials Informatics.

The Combinatorial Sciences and Materials Informatics Collaboratory (CoSMIC) is an international research and education center promoting the use of informatics and combinatorial experimentation for materials discovery and design. It operates through a cyber-infrastructure for global collaboration among researchers and educators. CoSMIC is composed of an international consortium of universities and laboratories. The program is based at Iowa State University with its partners at Florida International University, University of Maryland, University of Puerto Rico, Mayaguez and the Kent State University led NSF Materials Digital Library (MatDL) Pathway consortium.
