December saw the end of this year's PRA3006 course (aka #mcspils). Time to blog some screenshots of the student projects. Like last year, the aim is to use the Open PHACTS API to collect data with ops.js and which should then be visualized in a HTML page, preferably with d3.js. This year, all projects reached that goal.

ACE inhibitors

The first team (Mischa-Alexander and Hamza) focused on the ACE inhibitors (type:"drug class") and the WP554 from WikiPathways. The use a tree structure to list inhibitors along with their activity:

The source code for this project is available under a MIT license.

Diabetes

The second team (Catherine and Moritz) looked at compounds hitting diabetes mellitus targets.

The Royal Society of Chemistry and Wikipedia just released an interesting press release:

"The Royal Society of Chemistry has announced that it is donating 100 “RSC Gold” accounts – the complete portfolio of their journals and databases – to be used by Wikipedia editors who write about chemistry. The partnership is part of a wider collaboration between the Society’s members and staff, Wikimedia UK and the Wikimedia community.

This blog deals with chemblaics in the broader sense. Chemblaics (pronounced chem-bla-ics) is the science that uses computers to solve problems in chemistry, biochemistry and related fields. The big difference between chemblaics and areas such as chem(o)?informatics, chemometrics, computational chemistry, etc, is that chemblaics only uses open source software, open data, and open standards, making experimental results reproducible and validatable. And this is a big difference!
