“We’re constantly using Reaxys. For many different things.”

Join Prof. Daniel Blanco Ania as he shares valuable insights and knowledge on the use of Reaxys in chemistry teaching. The session aims to familiarize the target audience with Reaxys and highlight its benefits, demonstrating how it can be fundamental in solving specific problems in the lab – like working through an array of different reagents or proposing a synthetic pathway to transform the starting material into a product.

Additionally, the session will briefly introduce the Reaxys predictive retrosynthesis module, offering participants an opportunity to explore its potential applications in education.

On having Reaxys in the classroom, Prof. Blanco Ania says “I could compare it to calculators.”

Who should attend?

The target audience for this session consists of those teaching chemistry in the lab, researchers, post-doctoral fellows, and graduate students specializing in the fields of chemistry and pharmacy.

It may also include academic librarians who support chemistry and pharmaceutical science departments, seeking to better understand the tools that can support their researchers. These information professionals will gain insight into the uniquely powerful features and functionalities of Reaxys, how it assists students and researchers in accessing relevant literature, in conducting effective searches, and navigating the platform's resources.

Whether you are entirely new to Reaxys, or simply keen to become a more expert user, this session is for you.
