New PubChem Tutorial. NLM Tech Bull. 2022 Jul-Aug;(447):b3.

2022 July 22 [posted]

PubChem is the National Library of Medicine's (NLM's) open chemistry database and one of the largest freely accessible reference tools for chemical information. A new, free, self-paced PubChem tutorial guides you through how to access chemical property and structure data contributed by hundreds of academic, government, and industrial sources. The tutorial includes step-by-step directions for how to find chemical information using chemical names, identifiers, molecular formulas, gene symbols, proteins, pathways, taxonomies, and structures. It also shows you how to use the rich connections between PubChem and other resources, like PubMed, to explore chemical information further, and how to download chemistry data from PubChem.

You can access the tutorial on the NLM website at: https://www.nlm.nih.gov/oet/ed/pubchem/tutorial/
