Molecular Visualization on the Web
As the author of MolView.org, I have dealt with some 3D molecular visualization on the web. In fact, somone else here, Dr. Hanson, is the maintainer of an entire visualization platform called Jmol! Now you might think that visualization is difficult, but guess what, it's not ;-). In this module I'm going to lead you through various steps enabling you to create a very simple website in your web browser that has a 3D molecule viewer with some structure in it. If you have zero experience in programming or web development, that's ok, what counts is your commitment!

Hello OLCC Team
I have just "joined" your class and I look forward to discussing Chemical Information Retrieval with you. I became interested in the topic as a young academic at The University of Sydney (Organic Chemistry Department) in 1983 - interested because I could see electronic information retrieval was the way for the future, and because I could see the intellectual challenges. After consulting with the Chemical Abstracts Service for almost 30 years, I now am a consultant for Elsevier Reaxys. I look forward to working with you all. That's enough from me now. I hope to get your feedback/questions on some of the modules soon.
