Excited that @OpenChem was selected as a @gsoc mentoring organization again!!! Combing #OpenSource, #OpenScience and of course #OpenChemistry with improving student participation to enable scientific research. Back in 2007 I was a student in this program working on @AvogadroChem
Read more about open chemistry in a forward looking article published in IJQC showing what the future of data creation and dissemination could look like!
MolSSI Associate, Bert de Jong, is a co-author of a new publication in IJQC: Open Chemistry, JupyterLab, REST, and quantum chemistry, about the importance of open source, open data, open standards, and open access to reproducible research.

I just heard that @gsoc accepted the @OpenChem organization as a mentoring org! We are all very pleased, and looking forward to taking part in another summer of code! If you know students that are interested in #OpenSource and chemistry/related areas please send them our way
We are holding free courses 22-25 July, including one on Tomviz on 24 July at our headquarters in Clifton Park, NY. Come and learn how to use Tomviz for all of your materials tomography needs! Also CMake, VTK, ParaView and Girder courses, register now

We have seven @gsoc projects this year covering a range of #OpenSource chemistry projects. Please join us in welcoming our students this year! #OpenScience https://t.co/41j89N8TOA
We are very pleased that our project has been accepted as a mentoring org in @gsoc for our fourth year! If you know of any students who would like to work on open source and chemistry please send them our way! A great selection of projects/ideas is at https://t.co/UTCECOkxV0
"Nanocrystals Get Better When They Double Up With MOFs" shows a simulation of self-assembling 2D nanocrystal/MOF material for energy storage visualized using Tomviz by @BerkeleyLab https://t.co/UHp2Jex4xd
Read about some recent @OpenChem work getting @AvogadroChem binary wheels for Python, visualization in JupyterLab using 3DMol or vtk.js to offer quantum chemistry visualization in your local notebooks and with Binder! #OpenScience#OpenSource https://t.co/zmALVExyku
At the #gsoc Mentor Summit, enjoying the new campus, and taking in all the summit has to offer, including the chocolate table. Great #OpenSource meeting with a good mix of #OpenScience, representing @OpenChem in our third year as a mentoring org!
Some recent development in Avogadro, where you can see an in application render window using VTK for isosurface and volume rendering of a molecular orbital for ethanol. Still some clean up needed, but it should make our next release! https://t.co/A6U3jwAhnY
Check out Avogadro 1.91, just released with many updates from the @gsoc this year (MD, animations), as well as plots, new input generators, and much, much more just before our first user meeting in Pittsburgh, PA this weekend! https://t.co/yariMq4nAY @OpenChem@AvogadroChem
Ethanol molecular orbital, with simultaneous isosurface and volume rendering in @AvogadroChem 2 using VTK as part of @OpenChem development work. Still pretty rough, but this #OpenSource development is coming to desktop and web (with @ProjectJupyter integration too)! #OpenScience
One week from today @Pitt_Chemistry (after #ACSBoston) is the first Avogadro User’s Group Meeting.
We’re full! Six talks, two lightning talks, and a full house.
Slides, notes, and scripts will be shared online after the meeting: https://t.co/CrlFWC6ZqN
.@OpenChem received over 50 @gsoc proposals this year, over *double* the past two years! Lots of excellent applications - now the hard work begins to review them all!
If you are thinking of submitting a proposal please do it soon, check out our GSoC page for more details on Open Chemistry projects https://t.co/kNiORfPfeC and get in touch with mentors for projects as early as possible! #OpenSource#OpenScience projects! https://t.co/gUVc2gs2Ur
