Jmol-a paradigm shift in crystallographic visualization

Abstract

Recent advances in molecular and crystallographic visualization methods are allowing instructors unprecedented opportunities to enhance student learning using virtual models within a familiar web-browser context. In step with these advances, the latest versions of the Jmol molecular visualization applet offer capabilities that hold potential for revolutionizing the way students learn about symmetry, uncertainty and the overall enterprise of molecular structure determination. © 2010 International Union of Crystallography Printed in Singapore-all rights reserved.
