Richard Goldsby, Professor of Biology and workshop organizer, said afterwards
"... an informative and revelatory day for all of us lucky enough to
be in the room. The presentation was so clear and [the two instructors]
were so flexible in helping each participant get and do what they
needed. This was a model of what an effective workshop should be."
This workshop was attended by five faculty, several postdoctorals,
two graduate students, and six undergraduates (total 22).

RasMol Workshops
During 1997-1999, I gave a series of
3-day workshops for college faculty supported
by a grant
from the Division of Undergraduate Education of the National Science Foundation.
The design of Protein Explorer was inspired by observing
the difficulties faculty experienced using RasMol and Chime effectively, especially
on an occasional basis. Beginning in late 1998, Protein Explorer superceded
RasMol, being easier to use and more powerful. Protein Explorer
makes the power of Chime accessible, and extends the capabilities of Chime.
