Stuart Chalk

Biography

Dr. Stuart J. Chalk is a Professor in the Department of Chemistry at the University of North Florida. Although trained as an analytical chemist, Dr. Chalk’s research now focuses on the areas of Chemical Informatics and Data Science. In particular, Dr. Chalk has projects focused on machine accessibility of solubility, online enhancements to the IUPAC Gold Book, automated extraction and annotation of chemical property data from PDF files, and scientific data models.

Dr. Chalk received an NSF funded grant in 2019 focusing on semantic integration of heterogeneous datasets from toxicology, medicine, materials, biodiversity, and chemistry. His latest project, “KnowLedger” a digital research management tool, was funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) in August 2024.
