Open Science/Chemistry
and no, I don't think that JChemPaint, XDrawChem, ChemSketch and BKChem can fill these shoes.
Open Science/Chemistry
I have been following some #openscience initiatives in Chemistry (such as the OSMalaria, OSAntibiotics, OSMycetoma, the Structural Genomics Consortium, etc) but somehow I think that (concerning Chemistry, of course), it won't be fully open while we're still bound to proprietary softwares (such as chemical drawing packages)

#introductions Hello there! I'm a professor of organic and medicinal #chemistry at a public University in Brazil. My research interests are the design and development of bioactive compounds (specially looking for new anticancer, antiparasitic and anticoagulant molecules). I am also interested in the synthesis of #heterocycles.
Professor of Organic and Medicinal Chemistry at the Federal Rural University of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
Research focus: design and development of new anticancer and antiparasitic drugs; multicomponent reactions; heterocyclic synthesis.
