Dr. John Rumble has long been a leader in developing and providing
access to databases in a numerous S&T disciplines. From 1980
through 2004, he worked in the NIST Standard Reference Data Program
and later was responsible for NIST measurement services programs.
From 2004 to 2011, He was Executive Vice President of Information
International Associates in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. Today he is
President of R&R Data Services in Gaithersburg MD.
Rumble has served on numerous national and international STI policy
committees and review panels and was a member of the Board on
International Scientific Organizations of the National Academy of
Sciences.
Dr. Rumble was among the first to build online, PC, and
Internet/web-based factual databases for scientific and technical
(S&T) data. While at NIST, he sponsored data projects with
scientists in China, Japan, England, France, Germany, and Russia.
During that time, he also worked with many industry organizations
and professional societies to develop industry-related data
programs in materials science and chemistry, as well as standards
for S&T data exchange.
Dr. Rumble has considerable experience in chemistry, physics,
materials science, nanomaterials, and informatics and data science
experience and has published widely in all these areas. Rumble
received a Ph.D. in Chemical Physics from Indiana University.
In 1998-2002, Rumble served as President of CODATA, the ICSU
Committee on Data for Science and Technology. Dr. Rumble is Fellow
of IUPAC, AAAS, APS, ASTM International, ASM International, and
IAFoST, as well as a Foreign Member of the Russian Academy of
Metrology. He was awarded the CODATA 2006 Prize for outstanding
achievements in S&T data. He has served two terms as
Editor-in-Chief of the CODATA Data Science Journal.
During the last five years, Dr. Rumble has led a multi-disciplinary
effort to develop a uniform system for describing nanomaterials.
This work has been done under the auspices of CODATA International
and the International Council for Science. Rumble has put together
a unique group of international union representatives from the
diverse scientific and technical fields interested in
nanotechnology, including chemistry, physics, materials science,
food science and technology, nutrition science, toxicology, and
more. In addition, he has reached out to more general audiences in
these fields through international workshops, symposia at union
conferences, and liaisons with U.S. and European Nanosafety
projects. This work is available at www.codata.org/nanomaterials
