Introduction to Materials Informatics

Authors: Enze Chen and Mark Asta (University of California, Berkeley)

NOTE: A second iteration of this text for the 2022 program can be found here.

This is a 3-week curriculum for one of three modules for a remote summer 2021 research internship in the Materials Sciences Division at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. It is designed using the open-source Jupyter Book software and interactivity is made possible with the generous support of the DataHub program at UC Berkeley (non-Berkeley students may also use Google Colaboratory).
