Welcome to the Molecular Graphics and Modelling Society (MGMS) website. This site contains information about the society, how to become a member, and also lists forthcoming events organised or affiliated to the MGMS. Navigation is via the menu bar at the top of the page, and clicking on the MGMS logo will always bring you back here. We would be grateful of any comments or suggestions you have about the site - these can be sent to the webmaster.
The MGMS was set up in 1981 as a society dedicated solely to the interests of molecular modelling and related aspects of computational chemistry. Since then it has gone from strength to strength, with chapters of the society formed in America and Germany. Current membership of the society is around 500 with a geographical spread including most European countries, North America, Japan and Australia.
The society organises many large meetings around the world which bring together people from all aspects of the discipline. Smaller, more focused meetings are also arranged to allow more detailed discussion of particular areas.
For those interested in learning more about the history and growth of the Society, presentations from the MGMS Silver Jubilee Meeting are available.

In conjunction with Elsevier, the Society publishes the Journal of Molecular Graphics and Modelling. The journal now appears 8 times a year, the increase in the number of issues resulting directly from the increased number of high quality submissions received. The journal is published in full colour and is devoted to high quality practical and theoretical papers on the use of computers for the investigation of molecular structure, function and interaction. Details of the Journal can be found via Science Direct. |
