摘要: Life science in general and chemistry particular are inaccessible to blind visually impaired (BVI) students at the exception of very few individ-uals who have overcome, a seemingly miraculous way, hurdles that pave way higher education professional competency. AsteriX-BVI publicly accessible web server, developed Radboud University Netherlands already allows BVI scientists perform complete series tasks automatically manage results quantum chemical calculations produce 3D representation optimized structures into printable, haptic-enhanced format includes Braille annotations.1
