However, you cannot update existing entries or add new entries at this time.

If you know how to configure Java Server Pages and wish to volunteer, please contact emartz@microbio.umass.edu. This site was moved to a different server in January, 2012, inadvertently disabling the jsp code, which had been in service since 2000.

History of this site:

June, 2000: This site went on-line with only two categories (biochemistry tutorials, how-to methods for Chime).
December, 2000: The domain MolVisIndex.Org was created.
December, 2000: 11 more categories were added, making a total of 13 categories.
May, 2004: The Biochemistry Tutorials category was broadened to include tutorials using any technology with rotating/interactive molecular images. (Previously it was limited to tutorials using MDL Chime.)
May, 2004: The "Physical Molecular Models and Molecular Sculpture" category was added; the category "Biochemistry Tutorials not in Chime" was merged into the main "Biochemistry Tutorials" category, so the total remained 13 categories.
October, 2006: Added new category "Molecular 3D Visualization Servers".
In academic year 2005-2006, this page was visited by 26,000 people (average 503 people/week). Later average rates:
