The utilization of virtual compound libraries and virtual screening has become a routine method in drug discovery and has accelerated the research of pharmacy and translational medicine. With the development of computer-aided drug design (CADD), it is essential to incorporate virtual experiments into the education of medicinal chemistry. Herein,…

Crystallographic information provides the fundamental basis for understanding the properties and behavior of materials. This data, such as chemical composition, unit cell dimensions, space group, and atomic positions, derives from the primary literature--that is, from published experimental measurement or theoretical calculation. Although the…

As a discipline, chemistry enjoys a unique position. While many academic areas prepared "cooperative examinations" in the 1930s, only chemistry maintained the activity within what has become the ACS Examinations Institute. As a result, the long-term existence of community-built, norm-referenced, standardized exams provides a historical…
