The Chemoinformatics microMOOCs were created within the framework of the Erasmus Mundus Joint Master’s Degree Programme – Chemoinformatics+, with the goal of promoting and expanding access to education in the rapidly evolving field of chemoinformatics. These short, focused courses are designed to provide learners with essential knowledge and skills, ranging from molecular representations and chemical databases to machine learning applications and molecular modeling.
Chemoinformatics plays a central role in modern chemistry, pharmaceutical research, and materials science by bridging the gap between chemical data and computational analysis. By delivering high-quality, modular content online, the microMOOCs support both students and professionals in acquiring foundational and advanced competencies—at their own pace and from anywhere in the world.
Hosted on the ECTNMOOCs platform, which is based on the open-source Open edX technology, these microMOOCs are part of a broader educational strategy to foster interdisciplinary learning, encourage digital innovation in chemistry education, and build a global community of chemoinformatics learners and educators.
Whether you are new to chemoinformatics or seeking to deepen your expertise, these microMOOCs offer a flexible and interactive way to engage with cutting-edge concepts and tools shaping the future of chemical sciences.
This set of microMOOCs introduces basic programming in Python and R tailored for chemoinformatics. You'll explore variables, loops, data handling, and visualizations using real chemical data. No prior experience is needed—these short courses build a strong foundation for further chemoinformatics studies.
