Topic

The aim of the course is to give the students a basic knowledge of chemical informatics. An overview of how computers have become the indispensable tools for chemical experiments, measurements, regulatory and performance evaluation tasks, and theoretical chemistry tests.

We cover the chemical sciences from used software, web resources, which we believe are most useful during academic years in chemical science student work and in preparing theses. Students can learn the basics of molecular modelling, the use of databases available in the University (ScienceDirect, PubMed, SciFinder ...), the general steps of the search.
