It will be in Leipzig, Germany on 18-20 May. Places are still available if you are interested. I have just now posted an updated outline of the course topics at http://tinyurl.com/35ulsoh The course will walk through building a web application which includes: JMol structure input, SQL database searching, molecular property calculations, interactive results, and personalized search history. The course is meant for a computational chemist who has some programming experience and who wants to get up to speed in developing web applications. Some of the technologies I'll cover are: - Django web application framework - OEChem for cheminformatics - handling CSV, SMILES and SD file - structure and substructure depictions - SQL databases and Excel - descriptor and fingerprint calculations - Javascript for AJAX and browser widgets - plotting, calling external binaries, and more. More details are available at http://dalkescientific.com/training/ or feel free to email me to reserve a spot or ask questions. Andrew dalke .. dalkescientific.com
